Launching on 28 August 2026, Yum Cha is introducing Mahjong Social Fridays, a fun new social dining concept that combines dim sum dining with mahjong games. It is a brilliant integration of Chinese heritage, leisurely dining, and community bonding, set right within their spacious flagship restaurant along Trengganu Street in Chinatown.
Priced attractively at S$38++ per person, Mahjong Social Friday is a weekly event that offers a four hour window from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM for patrons to immerse themselves in a friendly game.




The package includes a reserved seat at a mahjong table, a curated six piece dim sum high tea set, a complimentary dessert, bottomless freshly brewed Chinese tea, and a $10 dining voucher for future visits.


The initiative stands out for its welcoming approach, allowing solo players to register and be matched with others of similar skill levels. It is a strictly social, non gambling experience where beginners can learn from friendly staff while enjoying the game and food without the pressure of finding a complete group.

We were invited to the media preview for Mahjong Social last week and we love the community vibe, paired with the lovely dim sum to fill our bellies.
During the event, we also got to savour some of the items from Yum Cha’s catering menu, including items from their live stations and signature creations like their Bak Kut Teh Xiao Long Bao and Otak Siew Mai.

More details on Yum Cha’s catering menu and options are available here.













Whether you are a seasoned player looking to sharpen your skills or a curious novice hoping to understand the game, the combination of good food, warm hospitality, and community spirit makes this an event worth clearing your Friday schedule for.
