Mooncake Season 2019: Grand Shanghai
In celebration of the upcoming mid-autumn festival, Grand Shanghai has unveiled an exquisite assortment of limited-edition mooncakes ahead of its highly-anticipated reopening in September 2019. Now available for order, the award-winning restaurant will offer a selection of these decadent confections in six varieties with a mix of classic and new flavours, including a spin on the local favourite Shanghainese style, lava egg custard with salted egg yolk.
Perfect for family gatherings or as a gift for treasured friends and loved ones, the mooncakes come wrapped in a luxurious box reminiscent of the restaurant’s iconic 1930s Shanghainese extravagance and grandeur. Lovingly handmade by Grand Shanghai’s chefs in-house, each mooncake is skilfully crafted using premium ingredients, such as organic egg yolks and a traditional baking method with no preservatives. The timeless Cantonese mooncake is a perennial favourite.
Lightly baked golden crust is filled with a smooth, rich lotus paste and salty yolk, with melon seeds added to enhance the flavour and mouthfeel. Enjoy classics such as the Traditional Baked White Lotus Paste with Double Yolks ($62 per set of four), Traditional Baked White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk ($60 per set of four) or the Traditional Baked White Lotus Paste with Melon seeds ($58 per set of four).
To truly experience the flavour of Grand Shanghai, try its signature Shanghainese-style mooncakes – Shanghainese Crispy Red Date Paste ($58 per set of four) or Shanghainese Crispy Yam Paste ($58 per set of four) – a centre of delicious, slow-cooked yam or red date paste encased in a buttery, flaky pastry. In a nod to modern palates, the restaurant has also introduced a new flavour – Shanghainese Lava Egg Custard with Salted Egg Yolk ($68 per set of six) which combines the fragrant, creamy custard with crisp pastry in one indulgent mouthful.
