Those who missed two Michelin-starred chef Lai Yau Tim’s Braised Pomelo Peel with Prawn Roe at the World Gourmet Summit last year will have another chance at sampling his signature dish at Feng Shui Inn from 30 September to 9 October.

, More michelin magicWho: Chef Lai Yau Tim from Hong Kong is the chef-owner of Tim's Kitchen in Hong Kong, Macau and Shanghai. If he strikes you as familiar, that's because the two Michelin-starred chef was in town last year, demonstrating his Braised Pomelo Peel with Prawn Roe to guests at The China Club Singapore during the World Gourmet Summit.

What: Lai, a protegé of Cantonese masterchef Lee Choi, is the third guest chef to grace the Global Gourmet Kitchen series at Resorts World Sentosa. He reprises his signature creation, a dish that requires a three-day process of soaking, drying and boiling the skins of young green pomelos. These are then slow cooked in a rich stock of dried shrimp, scallops, and toasted flounder fish before a further burst of flavour is lent by tiny orange sacs of prawn roe ($12).

Other dishes available during his promotional stint at Feng Shui Inn include three preparations of crab: steamed with winter melon ($36), steamed with egg white, and deep fried with salt and pepper. Lai's adept hand at seafood is further evident in a Stir Fried Lobster (from $88) that is tossed with robust spices over a high flame to achieve fragrant charred bits of wok hei. Guests shouldn't leave without trying the Braised Quail Soup. Adapted from a 1920s recipe for snake soup, the tender and traditional broth is making its debut here before it becomes a menu mainstay at the three Tim's Kitchens abroad.
