If I had to choose between eating Western grub and Asian food for the rest of my life, I will always pick the latter. Whether it’s Chinese, Korean, Thai or Japanese cuisine, I love them all. And while taste is subjective, I feel that Asian cuisines tend to deliver a wider range of punchy flavours. Plus, their communal nature is perfect for get-togethers! Here are 10 limited-time dining deals for Maybank Cardmembers who enjoy eating Asian nosh as much as I do.
Make a trip to Taste Paradise for an unforgettable Chinese fine dining experience. To celebrate National Day, the restaurant has come up with three red and white creations. A real eye-catcher is their Sweet and Sour Pork and Strawberry ($32.80++) that’s plated atop scrambled egg white and crispy rice. Those who love seafood will enjoy their Sautéed Garoupa with Fresh Chinese Yam ($38.80++) and Chinese Yam and Bamboo Pith served in Lobster Broth ($19.80++).
From now until 17 August 2018, Maybank Cardmembers are rewarded with 53% off these three National Day red and white creations when they dine here on weekdays! There’s no limit to how many dishes you can order, so go ahead and eat to your heart’s content.
