If you're visiting around Lunar New Year, Rasa Sayang (5 Macclesfield St, W1D 6AY; 020 7734 1382) is the place to try yu sheng, a traditional new year dish in Malaysia and Singapore -- both in the restaurant or to take away.
Family and friends gather to enjoy the huge mix of ingredients -- carrots, ginger, jellyfish, wontons and more -- all of which signify luck, wealth or health. In the ritual of lo hei ("toss high"), guests toss the ingredients in the air with chopsticks while shouting out good wishes for the year ahead.
