Longjing's New Afternoon Tea Set Brings Jiangnan-Style Dim Sum To Suntec City For $29.90
Longjing at Suntec City has rolled out a new seasonal menu and a weekday-only Jiangnan Afternoon Tea Set priced at $29.90 for two people. The Hangzhou-born Zhejiang cuisine chain, which opened its first Singapore outlet at Suntec City Mall #01-384, is leaning into the mid-afternoon slot with a set designed for slow tea sessions rather than a quick lunch. The tea set runs Monday to Friday, 2pm to 5pm, excluding public holidays, at the Suntec City outlet only.
The $29.90 price is for the set for two, and it excludes service charge and GST. At roughly $15 per person before taxes, it undercuts most hotel afternoon tea offerings in the Marina Centre area by a wide margin, and the Jiangnan dim sum framing gives it a regional identity that hotel tea sets usually lack. This is not scones and finger sandwiches; it is a taste of the canal towns and tea houses around Hangzhou.
What the Jiangnan Afternoon Tea Set includes
The set draws from the Jiangnan region, the area south of the Yangtze that covers Hangzhou, Suzhou and the wider Zhejiang culinary sphere. Expect small plates of dim sum and tea snacks in the style of Hangzhou water town teahouses, paired with Longjing tea, the dragon well green tea that gives the restaurant its name. The full lineup rotates, but the anchor is the Jiangnan dim sum basket, which sits alongside the restaurant's existing signature dishes.
The broader new menu, launched in mid-July 2026, builds on the existing Zhejiang lineup that earned Longjing its Singapore following. The signatures remain: Longjing Roast Chicken at $23.80, a tea-perfumed bird with crackling skin; Dong Po Pork at $16.80, the slow-braised belly over rice; and Sister Song's Fish Broth at $5.80, a thick Hangzhou soup with roots in the Southern Song dynasty. Dishes across the new menu start from $5.80, which keeps the threshold low for a group that wants to share.
The West Lake decor and why the room matters
The Suntec City outlet has been called one of the most beautiful Chinese restaurants in Singapore, and the room is part of the afternoon tea draw. The interior leans into a West Lake-inspired aesthetic, with Jiangnan garden detailing, soft guzheng background music, and a calm that is genuinely hard to find in a mall restaurant at lunch. The afternoon tea window, 2pm to 5pm, is the quietest stretch of the day, which makes it the best time to actually sit in the space rather than queue for it.
Longjing is a partnership with Chef Master Yu Bin, who has spent years in Michelin and Black Pearl-starred kitchens. The Singapore menu is not a direct copy of the China original; it is adapted for local palates while keeping the Zhejiang backbone. The afternoon tea set is a Suntec City exclusive, not available at the Novena Square outlet, so if you want the $29.90 deal you need to head to the Convention Centre side of Suntec.
