Whether you’re looking to splurge on restaurant-finessed plates and classic hotel options, or ball on a budget with great supermarket offers — here are the best Yu Sheng deliveries on the island that will have you screaming, huat ah!
While celebrations have gotten a bit more subdued over the last two years due to the C-word, we can’t deny the electrifying atmosphere that surfaces every time the Lunar New Year comes around. Yes, it’s that time of year again when doors are framed with Chun Lian, shops are decked out in festive shades of red and gold, and shopping malls/ supermarkets do their annual dust-off of sound systems to blast our favourite LNY tunes. It’s clear that even though we have to meet in smaller groups, and possibly visit fewer houses, some things will always stay the same. Like reunion dinners to welcome the year, and Lo Hei aka Yu Sheng. To make both of those things easier for you to organise, we’ve pulled together the best Yu Sheng deliveries to make 2022’s LNY a breeze!
But First, More About Lo Hei Tradition
The 11-ingredient Yu Sheng is said to signify an “increase of abundance”. The word yu (鱼) sounds like yu (余), which means abundance and surpluses, while the word sheng (生) sounds like sheng (升), which means to rise. And therefore, the higher you toss the ingredients, the greater your blessings and fortunes for the year!
To better prepare you to slay your Lo Hei, we’ve prepped what to say when each ingredient is added into the mix:
| Ingredients | What to say |
| 1. Sashimi slices | Nian Nian You Yu |
| 2. Pomelo bits | Da Ji Da Li |
| 3. Pepper & five-spice powder | Zhao Cai Jin Bao |
| 4. Oil | Cai Yuan Guang Jin, Yi Ben Wan Li |
| 5. Carrot | Hong Yun Dang Tou |
| 6. Green radish | Qing Chun Yong Zhu |
| 7. White radish | Bu Bu Gao Sheng, Feng Sheng Shui Qi |
| 8. Sesame seeds & peanut bits | Jin Yin Man Wu, Sheng Yi Xing Long |
| 9. Golden crackers | Bian Di Huang Jin |
| 10. Plum sauce | Tian Tian Mi Mi |
| 11. Time to toss! | Huat Ah!!! |
