Hubs ordered a Yee Sang with abalone and jelly fish, which was the star of the show that afternoon.
Have you ever tried yee sang with abalone? If you're a lover of abalone, you're going to love this platter with chewy abalone. I prefer abalone to raw salmon but if abalone is ordered, be prepared to pull out more notes from your wallet la...
Do you know that the abalone in yee sang has an auspicious connotation to it? Abalone (pao yu) means guaranteed luck or success. And if raw fish is added, the fish (yu) represents abundance in Chinese.
The higher you toss, the better. Huatttttt arrrrr! May this year be a big 'huat' year for all of us!
Stir-fried assorted vegetables with water chestnut, fried cuttlefish and macadamia nuts; steamed Soon Hock fish. The fish meat texture is superb - succulent, fresh and sans any fishy odour.
Stir-fried choy yuen; braised fish maw and pig veins in claypot.
And two hearty meat temptations - stir fried Chinese bullfrogs (tin kai) koong po style and fried nam yue pork ribs, especially for the carnivorous men.
After lunch, we walked across to Awesome Canteen for cakes, coffee and juices.
Cempedak cake is oh so comfortingly good, fluffy and filled with chunks of aromatic cempedak. Love it!
