Mooncakes, Mahjong & Moutai: Mr. Chow’s Ultimate Mid-Autumn Pairing Guide

The mid-autumn moon is at its roundest, the mahjong tiles are out: Reunion dinner season is here! 

If there’s one thing to learn from Mr. Chow, the liquor delivery outfit that keeps dinner parties delightfully stocked, the right bottle can make an ordinary dish sing like a culinary symphony.

Here are Mr. Chow's unbeatable recommendations for a complete nine-course mid-autumn feast, paired bottle-by-bottle with everyone’s favourite dishes for maximum convenience!

Cantonese Crispy Noodle with Giant Fresh Water Prawn × Bottega Gold Prosecco Brut (RM150) 

The buttery prawn roe sauce clinging to these noodles is the pleasure of sang har mee, so it needs something with fizz to cut through it. A crisp Prosecco resets your palate between bites instead of piling richness on richness.





Chinese Poached Village Chicken with Soy Sauce × Suntory Hibiki Japanese Harmony (RM636) 

Hainanese-style poached chicken with satiny skin follows the same beautifully balanced philosophy as Hibiki’s soft, floral nature. It’s not a coincidence the word “Harmony” is right there on the label.





Signature Pattaya Style Deep Fried Cod Fish × Kweichow Moutai Flying Fairy 53% (RM1,436) 

This is the pairing that purists will pursue. Baijiu’s intense fermented sauce aroma is exquisitely matched with the cod fish that's a staple of this region's banquets. The full-bodied, flaky fleshiness of cod fish is the kind of dish Moutai was built to stand next to.

Osmanthus Egg with Shark Fins × Don Julio 1942 Añejo Tequila (CNY 2026 Edition) (RM1,016) 

The most luxurious course secures the most luxurious bottle. It sounds unconventional on paper, but Don Julio 1942’s smooth oak-aged sweetness sits surprisingly comfortably with this preparation's delicate savoury-sweet silkiness. Prestige recognises prestige.




Blanched Broccoli × Glenfiddich 12 Years Speyside (RM193) 

Sometimes the plainest-seeming dish needs the plainest pairing logic: Don’t compete. Glenfiddich 12’s light, easy-drinking fruitiness gives your palate a clean break before the next round of richer courses.





Stir-Fried Kailan × Penfolds Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz (RM248) 

Same vegetable family as the broccoli, but a completely different treatment. The wok hei on stir-fried kailan calls for more backbone. A light-medium Shiraz is a well-worn match for charred garlicky greens in Western cooking, travelling just fine to a Chinese dinner table.




Deep Fried Sotong with Salt & Pepper × Glenmorangie Lasanta 12 Years (RM205) 

This crowd-pleasing classic of family meals deserves a comforting whisky. Lasanta wraps around the sotong with soothing notes of sherry-cask honey and dried fruit.

Signature Crispy Siu Yok × Johnnie Walker Blue Label (RM593) 

Keep the spirits high for a marvellous match of moods: Blue Label’s flagship smoothness is a prosperous pairing for succulent-fleshed roast pork with its crackly skin.

Mooncakes (Classic Red Lotus Paste) × Hennessy X.O (RM669) 

Cognac and mooncakes have been a reliable mid-autumn tradition for generations. X.O’s dried fruit, toffee and gentle spice slice cleanly through the decadent density of the lotus paste.

Planning a full reunion spread takes running around, so here’s the easy part: Mr. Chow delivers everything above straight to your door, no lining up at the liquor store required!

If you’re stocking up for the season, Mr. Chow is running RM75 off every RM800 spent storewide. Every RM750 spent on liquor also earns you an entry into a Spend & Win giveaway, with five winners walking away with a Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team driver jersey (running until September 30). Terms apply, so check the fine print before you check out.
