Canton-I
Banker's lunch today.. rushed 2 valuations before the lunch and another 2 after...I'm dead beat..dunno y damn suay all the agents/tenants/owners LATE today..somemore is late by 20-30min tt kinda LATE! 没有时间观念!!
Filling lunch so only had yogurt for dinner...p/s: bo bian im still on diet, at least till after my wedding banquet..*pout*
8-course meal for lunch 真的不是开玩笑的..if not for biz dev, I dun enjoy this kinda lunch (& it's happening so frequently tt I really must watch what I put into my mouth)..makes me feel full n sinful for the rest of the day..ordered their CNY menu..价钱也真的不是开玩笑的...16 pax = $1800!!
And conclusion...I still like their normal foodfare better...their xo carrot cake..best...
Venue: Canton-I
Orchard Ion #03
my 5th yu sheng this cny...but this is d most extravagant..comes w salmon sashimi and abalone..
roasted suckling pig..VERY CRISPY..& definitely fattening *lol* I only dared a bite of the skin where there's no layer of oil underneath...
mongolian-style steamed soon hock..very fresh...something different from the usual steam fish..comes with mushrooms, black fungus, 枸杞, etc...
oops sorry this is blurred..they turned the dish away just as i was snapping..dunno wats the name of this dish..king prawns w noodles..is a good combi i would say..instead of separating it into the usual 1 dish of prawns and another dish of noodles, they combined it..however dunno is cox of the cooking method or some other reasons, thou the prawns r fresh but taste quite tough. *shrugs* to me eating 1 such prawn is enough.. (tt speaks volume when im a prawn-lover and i can finish a whole dish of prawns myself)
last dish - desserts. In addition to the "chng teng", this is also part of the desserts - cereal custard muah chee and mini egg tarts...this is the best dish of the entire lunch and definitely brought it to a good ending. Love the custard muah chee..cereal coated - fragrant. Muah chee was not too sticky. U can either put the whole thing into the mouth or take a small bite of it - either one will have u caught by surprise..the entire inside is filled with warm liquid custard..bite in half, u'll see the golden custard inside tt makes u go "wooh"...everyone round the table was full of compliments for this...not forgetting the mini egg tarts...using only egg white, u can taste the eggy fragrance of it..not too sweet, yet crispy. Thumbs up for this dessert...left me wanting for more~
p/s: there r more dishes tt i did not take photos of...
