With a pandemic ravaging the world, 2021's Chinese New Year has to be celebrated differently.
As minimising cross contamination between individuals becomes a priority, communal dishes have come under scrutiny.
That means the tradition of lohei might have to be done differently this year.
Already, restrictions have banned the shouting of auspicious phrases.
But how about those who want to go add an extra mile to safe distancing?
Old Chang Kee's individual yusheng might be of interest to them.

Chinese New Year restrictions
Those hoping to cater for the New Year celebrations should remember to keep in mind the restrictions.
Households are limited to receiving eight visitors per day.
Families have also been advised to visit no more than two other homes each day.
In addition, safe management measures dictate that offices are to refrain from organising larger scale social events such as parties, celebrations, team bonding activities, dinner-and-dance, and gala dinners.
