This Lunar New Year 2025, Toronto’s DaiLo, one of Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants and Lovelri, Canada’s first transparent diamond company, are partnering to honour the Year of the Snake with a dazzling collaboration.
The Year of the Snake celebrates transformation, resilience, and prosperity. Known for its symbolic renewal, the snake sheds its skin to embrace growth, while diamonds—formed under immense pressure—stand as enduring icons of strength and beauty.
Each night, for seven nights, beginning on January 28 2025, anyone ordering the Lunar New Year Experience at DaiLo can enter to win one of seven x one carat diamonds valued at $1,500 each. The eighth diamond will be given away on DaiLo’s Instagram account @dailo.to.
Together, Lovelri and DaiLo capture this synergy in their exclusive “8 Diamonds in 8 Total Carats” promotion, reflecting the cultural significance of the number 8 as a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in Chinese tradition.
“This Lunar New Year falls during DaiLo’s tenth anniversary. We want to do something special to celebrate and when Lovelri approached us about a partnership, and we saw a commitment to quality similar to our own, we knew that this was the right partnership,” said Executive Chef and DaiLo Partner, Nick Liu.
“At Lovelri, each engagement ring is a masterpiece designed to reflect the wearer’s unique story. Similarly, DaiLo’s Chef Nick Liu creates bespoke dining experiences, blending Hakka heritage with modern culinary innovation. This partnership symbolizes the spirit of the season—prosperity, tradition, and creativity,” continued Anthony W., Founder of Lovelri.
This partnership merges exquisite jewelry design with culinary creativity, creating a unique celebration of individuality and tradition.
