We are two weeks away from Chinese New Year where we will usher in the Stallion this year. Have you had your “Sou Gong” Feast already?
I had an early “Sou Gong” Feast at Eastin Hotel Petaling Jaya’s Ee Chinese Cuisine recently and enjoyed it tremendously while reflecting the past year and also the present company of those who were with me in tossing to better health and wealth for the coming year!
Let’s start and see what Ee Chinese Cuisine has to offer :
We started off with the customary dish during CNY, a favourite dish of mine. I can just have this daily throughout the 15 days of CNY! That’s how much I like it
Beautiful salmon presented as flowers on a stalk.
Salmon with Rice Crackers “Yee Sang”. No doubt, “Yee Sang” is a raw fish salad that’s become the favoured entree for many Chinese families during Chinese New Year. Coming together and sharing the good wishes for life, everyone will toss as high as they can for better health, wealth and prosperity!
Besides the signature Rice Crackers “Yee Sang”, one can opt for abalone, white tuna as well as sea bird’s nest.
We also had Double Boiled Shark’s Bone Soup which is served individually. I must say that Ee Chinese Cuisine Double Boiled Soup never fails to impress me.
Next up is the Stewed “Gui Fei” Farm Chicken. Succulent tender chicken meat came with strong aroma of chinese wine.
This one had me going “ooh and ahhh”. Huge Oven Baked King River Prawn with Cheese Sauce. Oh my, I’m drooling as I’m writing this. This was a fabulous piece and those dining that night, kept checking out our partner’s prawn to see who get the biggest piece! LOL!!
I love Cod Fish and usually had it steamed. The version I had at Ee Chinese Cuisine is Steamed Cod Fish with Bean Curd Skin & Golden Garlic in Soya Sauce. Well the title only mentioned steamed but what we had was both steamed and fried.
Found the fried version not too bad for it brought out the aroma of the fish. Personal preference, I still prefer it steamed.
Money bag style, this contains Braised Abalone with Sea Cucumber and Dried Oysters with Vegetables. See the glittering gold on top, it’s edible. Huat huat ahhh!!
Another favourite of mine is the Stewed Fragrant Rice with Preserved Meat. Generous amount of preserved meat is placed on top of the rice and mix well together. Om nom nom nom…
The night ended too quickly for we then had Double Boiled Lotus Seed with Glutinous Rice Dumpling and Flower which is served together with Special Homemade Dessert.
A “tong sui” dessert lover, I love the double boiled lotus seed for it was not too sweet and brought with it a hint of osmanthus. The Special Homemade Dessert is actually a pineapple cake served atop a coconut grated cake.
Make your reservations now to “Sou Gong” and bid the Year of Snake adios and usher in the Year of Horse!
