Dong-Dong-Dong-Dong Qiang....Dong-Dong-Dong-Dong-Qiang.......I am blared by the Chinese New Year's songs everywhere I go; the malls, the restaurants, the radios..... but the CNY's songs remind me that Chinese New Year is coming SOOOONNNNN! So....any idea where to have your Chinese New Year Eve Family Reunion Dinner?
Tadaaaa! I was lucky to be invited to West Lake Garden, Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa for a Chinese New Year's Menu food review. So check out the CNY Menu!:
 |
| #1 King Pu with Hokkaido Scallop Yee Sang |
#1 Look what's on the top! FRESH SCALLOP!!!!
 |
| My first Yee Sang of the year! Toss high for everything! |
 |
| #2 Double-Boiled Shark's Fin Soup with Japanese Scallop and Fish Maw |
#2 Different Shark's Fin Soup from the normal one, the Scallop and Fish Maw was the bomb! Love the soup a lot!
 |
| #3 Deep-fried Crispy "Ying Yang" Chicken |
#3 See the very 'fatty' look crispy chicken that in between the broccoli? It's so crispy and it was fried with almond, perfect matchhhhh! Even though I thought it was "FAT" in between at the very first place but I just couldn't resist myself from eating that. NO WORRIES, it's not FAT.
 |
| #4 Braised Eight Headed Abalone with Black Moss, Dried Oyster and Cabbage |
 |
| #5 Steamed Estuary Garoupa with Shredded Ginger and Dried Fruit Peel |
#5 The Garoupa fish is a bit tough, bet this is how it should be taste like? The heavier the Garoupa the tougher? I don't know lol but the sauce is very simple but nice with ginger. Me like the sauce, like what my mom always cook one hehee:P
 |
| #6 Steamed Fresh Water Prawn with Garlic and Glass Noodle |
#6 The fresh water prawn hmmm.... the only dish I felt a bit weird. Too much garlic I suppose, Imma not a garlic lover but honestly, the Prawn is just FRESH!
 |
| #7 Claypot Rice with Waxed Duck and Mushroom |
#7 Love the waxed duck! Very creative of this dish, for people who doesn't eat pork, the waxed duck just taste like the original waxed pork.
 |
| #8 Chinese New Year Sweet Fancy Duet |
#8 Girls' favorite moment! The mouth watering dessert! Ok you should make sure your stomach can fill this because it is just soooo awesome! The one look like 'Nyoya Kuih' is actually the "Nian Gao, 年糕" , and it's non-sticky. Whereas the one looks like pumpkins are filled with Red Bean, awww just my favorite dish!
 |
| # 9 Sweetened Lotus Paste with Lily Bulb and Glutinous Rice Dumpling |
#9 Hmmm...the one served at last is a bit heavy for me. Very strong taste of lotus paste and lily bulb, too heavy but if you're the person who love strong taste of lotus taste and lily bulb, you might like this.

| Never expect this fella will drop by, the Illusionist to cheer the table! |
 |
| All the tricks! Manage to catch our attention heeeee |
