Yum Sing House Unveils Its Exclusive Chef’s Plate Series


This May, Yum Sing House will launch its inaugural Chef’s Plate Series, which will see rotating menus from the restaurant's all-star chefs; Aiven Lee (Longrain, Mamasita), Sous Chef Wanwisa (Nan) Maneewat (Longrain, Pretty Boy) and Senior Chef Ray Chi (ex-head chef Gingerboy, Longrain). Celebrating the rich tapestry of talent in the Yum Sing House kitchen, the $55pp Chef Plate Series will offer not just a meal, but an immersive culinary experience told through each chef’s curated menu. 

Beginning this week and available every Tuesday – Thursday, Yum Sing House’s talented chefs will each take turns showcasing a signature menu featuring dishes close to their hearts that represent their country of origin. ​ From Malaysian-style, Cantonese cuisine to contemporary Thai fusion and Vietnamese fare, each dish will tell a unique story of tradition, passion, and innovation. 

Leading the culinary journey is Head Chef Lee, whose childhood was shaped by the vibrant flavours of Malaysia. His expertise and passion shine through each dish on his menu, which will include: 

  • - Hiramasa kingfish, plum, ponzu
  • - Chicken wontons, ginger, scallion vinaigrette
  • - Barley-fed porterhouse with black pepper sauce
  • - Steamed gai lan, ginger garlic, oyster sauce
  • - Unlimited rice 
  • - Coconut sorbet to finish

The Chef’s Plate Series will then move to Thailand, with Sous Chef Maneewat bringing vibrant Thai flavours to the table, followed by Chef Chi who will round out the Series with flavourful dishes from Vietnam. 

For those after more than just a mid-week feast, guests can venture upstairs, and continue their night where the beautifully appointed bar and private karaoke rooms have access to some of the most delicious snacks in the city from early evening until into the late hours. 

Yum Sing House’s Chef’s Plate Series will be available Tuesday – Thursday, for $55pp.

Yum Sing House is open Tuesday – Thursday, 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM, Friday and Saturday 5:30 PM – Late. Karaoke is open Wednesday and Thursday from 7:00 pm, with packages starting at $160 and Friday and Saturday from 5:45 pm with packages starting at $320.

22 Sutherland Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000

Yum Sing House is a multifaceted venue that promises a vibrant evening that goes beyond expectation.

Tucked away within the bustling laneways of Melbourne’s CBD, the ground-level houses a stylish 90-seat restaurant where Chef Aiven Lee seamlessly blends refined Asian cuisine, authentic flavours with contemporary flair. An extensive drinks list features signature cocktails, an array of spirits, including over 60 whiskies, local drops and international wines to match.

Upstairs, a beautifully appointed bar and private karaoke rooms invite guests to continue their night with a kitchen that remains open until 3am.
