Chinese New Year is always that magical time of year when we gather, feast, and celebrate new beginnings with the people we love most. And if there’s one thing that instantly brings everyone together (literally and emotionally), it’s a simmering hot pot at the centre of the table.
This Year of the Horse, I’m putting one dining spot on your radar — especially if you love bold flavours and a little heat: Sichuan Kitchen at Four Points by Sheraton Kuala Lumpur, City Centre.
From 6 February 2026, the hotel welcomes the festive season with quintessential Chinese New Year traditions like Yee Sang, buffet spreads, and signature set menus — but the star of my foodie heart? The Sichuan mala hot pot buffet that promises a reunion feast with serious flavour.
Sichuan Kitchen KL: A True Sichuan Reunion Feast in the Heart of Kuala Lumpur
If you’re someone who loves your food spicy, aromatic, and unapologetically bold, Sichuan Kitchen is exactly where you want to be this Chinese New Year.
For 2026, the restaurant presents the “Spice of Prosperity” menu series, curated by Sichuan-native Chef Justin Song, featuring authentic flavours that stay true to Sichuan’s fiery, addictive profile.
It’s the kind of dining experience that feels festive from the moment you sit down — warm lights, buzzing tables, and that comforting sound of broth bubbling away as everyone reaches for their favourite ingredients.
The Highlight: Sichuan Mala Broth Hot Pot Buffet (MYR 238 nett)
Let’s talk about the main event: the hot pot buffet priced at MYR 238 nett.
There’s something so special about hot pot during Chinese New Year — it’s communal, interactive, and every bite feels like a mini celebration. At Sichuan Kitchen, the experience is elevated with their signature Sichuan mala broth, bringing that iconic numbing-spicy kick that mala lovers crave.
Expect a medley of fresh seafood and vegetables, perfect for building your ideal pot — whether you’re the “all seafood” person, the veggie lover, or someone who needs multiple dipping sauces like it’s a personal mission.
Hot pot here isn’t just about eating — it’s about sharing moments, laughing over what you’re cooking next, and having that one friend who always overcooks everything (we all have one).
Beyond the Hot Pot: Sichuan Signatures You Shouldn’t Miss
While the hot pot buffet is the ultimate centrepiece, the Spice of Prosperity series also features a delicious lineup of Sichuan specialties — perfect if you want to round out the table with extra dishes for that true reunion-style feast.
Some highlights include:
🥩 Stir-Fried Black Pepper Wagyu Beef
Rich, tender and full of that punchy black pepper fragrance — a crowd-pleaser that feels luxurious for the festive season.
🍗 Red Fortune Sichuan Spicy Chicken
Exactly what you want during CNY: bold flavours, warming spice, and that addictive Sichuan-style kick.
Together with the mala broth hot pot, these dishes turn your meal into a full-on festive spread.
Chinese New Year Set Menus (From MYR 258 nett)
If you’re planning a family gathering and want a more structured feast, Sichuan Kitchen also offers a full-course Chinese New Year set menu starting from MYR 258 nett.
This is great for bigger reunions, corporate gatherings, or when you simply want to treat the family to something special — without needing to think too hard about what to order.
Yee Sang Moment: Prosperity Treasure Yee Sang (Dine-in or Takeaway)
No Chinese New Year celebration is complete without Yee Sang — and Sichuan Kitchen delivers this tradition beautifully with their Prosperity Treasure Yee Sang, available for dine-in or takeaway.
You can choose between:
- Traditional salmon, or
- Fried soft shell crab topping
And pair it with:
- Classic sauce, or
- Sichuan-style sauce (yes please!)
It’s colourful, festive, and makes the perfect start to your reunion meal — especially when everyone gathers around for the toss and the loudest person at the table shouts blessings for the year ahead.
Quick Mention: The Mesh’s Oriental Buffet (Feb 16–18, 2026)
While Sichuan Kitchen is the place for spice lovers and hot pot fans, Four Points KLCC’s hallmark restaurant The Meshis also joining the celebration with an oriental buffet spread featuring comforting favourites such as:
- Flower chilli crab with mantou
- Salmon Nyonya fish curry
- Claypot chicken rice
This festive buffet is available 16–18 February 2026, from MYR 188 nett — perfect for those who prefer a more local-oriental mix with cosy family vibes.
