Do you dread cooking for guests during Chinese New Year? Fret not, as Pizza Hut‘s latest exclusive seasonal set, the CNY Fortune Box, will surely be a crowd-pleaser to usher in the Year of the Rabbit whilst being fuss-free!
Available from 4 Jan to 28 Feb 2023, Pizza Hut’s CNY Fortune Box (S$39.50) features a large Sweet & Sour Chicken Pizza, Chilli Lime Cream Penne, Chicken Tenders and Garlic Bread. Pizza Hut graciously provided us with a set to try them out!
Their Sweet & Sour Chicken Pizza is topped with marinated chicken pops, juicy lychees and golden pineapples crisps on a sweet and sour sauce base with cheese. You can even choose your crust of choice — Pan Crust, San Francisco Style, Sourdough Crust or Cheesy Stuffed Crust.
Their pulpy lychees provided a refreshing blast of floral sweetness that complemented the sourness of the sauce. I also appreciate how well-seasoned the pieces of chicken were. We need more dishes with those satisfying crunchy pineapple crisps!
I was impressed with the Chilli Lime Cream Penne. Despite having it as a takeaway, there was still a visible cheese pull. Taste-wise, it had a really strong citrusy flavour with a spiciness that slowly but surely built up. The CNY Fortune Box is ideal for 4 to 5 pax.
We also had a sample of their Huat Snack Box (S$14.60) which had Chilli Garlicky Wings, Sweet ‘N’ Spicy Drumlets, Mine Waffle Hashbrown and Garlic Mozzarella Pops.
The Chilli Garlicky Wings had a nice kick to them whilst their OG Sweet ‘N’ Spicy Drumlets remind you why it’s Pizza Hut’s undisputed best side dish. The box is the perfect pairing for a game of mahjong or Blackjack.
As an added bonus, we were also sent their new 2pc Pineapple Tarts (S$3.60). This is the perfect way to end a hearty feast— with the perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess. I doubt you can even look at traditional pineapple tarts the same way again!
