Chinese New Year 2026 arrives in the spirit of the Year of the Horse: a symbol of vitality, movement, and togetherness. It is a year that encourages connection, forward motion, and shared journeys, making the reunion table more meaningful than ever. As families gather once again to welcome the new year, the rituals remain familiar: laughter around the table, dishes meant for sharing, and the auspicious toss of yee sang (or yu sheng) to usher in prosperity and good fortune.

Yet no two reunions unfold in quite the same way. At Suria KLCC, Chinese New Year reunions reflect the many ways families celebrate. From traditional comfort to refined elegance and festive fusion, Suria KLCC offers dining venues with distinct settings suited to different family dynamics, making it easier to choose a place that feels right for the reunion ahead.

For Families Who Treasure Familiar Traditions

Madam Kwan’s – Malaysian Comfort for Generations at One Table

For families who find comfort in familiar flavours, Madam Kwan’s remains a natural choice. Known for its iconic Nasi Lemak and beloved Malaysian classics, the restaurant offers a warm, welcoming setting that suits gatherings across generations.

This festive season, families can begin with Madam’s Salmon Yee Sang, available in small (4-6 pax) and large (6-8 pax) portions, or opt for the vegetarian yee sang for larger groups. Set menus designed for 4-6 or 8-10 people make planning a reunion meal effortless.

Adding a playful festive touch, every large yee sang comes with a limited-edition Lou Lou plushie, a detail that delights younger family members while keeping the focus on shared enjoyment at the table.

For Families Who Appreciate Craft & Refinement

DIN by Din Tai Fung – A Polished Reunion with Thoughtful Details

DIN by Din Tai Fung suits families who value balance, consistency, and a refined dining experience. With a pork-free menu and carefully portioned dishes, it offers flexibility for mixed preferences while remaining ideal for sharing.

Chinese New Year highlights include the Smoked Salmon Yu Sheng, available in small (4-6 pax) and large (6-8 pax) sizes, alongside the comforting Eight Treasures Rice. Signature favourites such as Xiao Long Bao, shrimp and chicken shaomai, spicy tofu, and shrimp egg fried rice round out the meal.

The calm, polished environment makes it a fitting choice for families who prefer a quieter, more composed reunion centred on quality and conversation.

For Smaller Gatherings with Modern Tastes

Dolly Dim Sum – A Contemporary Reunion Across Festive Seasons

Not all reunions call for a large banquet. Dolly Dim Sum caters well to smaller families and casual gatherings with its modern approach to festive dining.

This Chinese New Year, the restaurant introduces Seasons of Reunion, bringing together Chinese New Year and Buka Puasa celebrations from 19 January to 20 March 2026. The Blossom and Jade set menus, designed for three people, offer flexibility without compromising on variety.

Festive highlights include the Lunar Yee Sang with crispy fish skin and plum sauce, available in small and large sizes, paired with playful dishes such as beef mapo tofu, mushroom seafood claypot, golden wontons with wasabi mayo, and sweet corn mochi balls. It’s a relaxed option for families who prefer a lighter, fuss-free celebration.

For Families Who Honour Heritage & Authenticity

Tien by Putien – Fujian Cuisine Rooted in Tradition

Tien by Putien appeals to families who see the Chinese New Year as a time to honour heritage and culinary tradition. Specialising in pork-free Fujian cuisine, the restaurant focuses on freshness, careful preparation, and premium ingredients.

Each plate of yee sang is prepared fresh in-house, featuring selected vegetables, house-made sauces, and premium abalone. With recommended festive set menus suited for larger groups, Tien by Putien offers a more structured, ceremonial dining experience, ideal for families who value tradition and authenticity.
