Also known as “Lo Bak Gao” in Canton, China, The Empress Radish Cake symbolizes growth and progress. With the word “gao” or “cake” in English, this delicacy also sounds like “high” or “tall” in Chinese, signifying aspirations to reach greater heights.
Achieve your goals this Year of the Wooden Dragon and partake in this auspicious dish, embodying wishes for success, prosperity, and the attainment of higher achievements in your endeavors.
Nian Gao: The Empress Glutinous Rice Cake

Nian Gao, commonly known to the Filipino-Chinese community as “Tikoy” has been a staple Chinese delicacy for many years.
Pro Tip: The Empress Dining Palace’s Tikoy is best prepared by slicing them into thin pieces, coating them in egg, before deep fried. The result is often a sweet and sticky rice cake, made savory by its egg coating.
While The Empress Treasure Pot and Radish Cake are available all year round, The Empress’ Tikoy together with The Empress Prosperity Toss Salad are available only this Chinese Lunar New Year 2024, so don’t forget to savor these seasonal specialties while you still can!
