Kicking the year off on a joyous note, Rustan’s is all set to mark the occasion with lion dances in all branches across the country. 

Chase away evil spirits and attract good luck on Feb. 3 at Rustan’s Gateway (12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.), Rustan’s Shangri-La (1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.), Rustan’s Cebu (4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.), Rustan’s Makati (4:30 PM to 5:30 p.m.), or Rustan’s Alabang (4:30 to 5:30 p.m.).

Food being an important part of this celebration, a celebratory Chinese New Year menu is currently available at select East Café branches in the metro until Feb. 28. 

The menu includes East Asian favorites like Xinjiang Skewers, Peking Style Pork Chop, and the classic Pork Stir Fry––elevated to a delicate flavor with chive flowers. Also on the menu are Crispy Champon Noodles with Pork and Shiitake, and a platter with a little taste of everything: Pork and Shrimp Wanton, Steamed Pork in Black Beans, and Steamed Pork Buns.
