[Delayed] My scrumptious 6 course 人日 dinner.
This was the umpteen visit to imperial treasure with my maternal family but I'm definitely not complaining. Since it was the first time trying their Chinese New Year menu, we went for the seasonal items like crispy whole suckling pig and of course the not to be missed Lou Hei. On top of that we had a good spread of sautéed prawns , deep fried soon hock fish in soya sauce, stewed ee fu noodles with mushrooms and braised shark fin with cabbage (the least favorite with a very deceiving imbalanced cabbage to shark fin ratio).
Ending off the meal, a bowl of well simmered红豆汤 with 芝麻汤圆 and a tinge of refreshing orange peels was served.
In the spirit of festivity, Chinese New Year almond cookies and 年糕 came as well. (Take-away option is available if you are stuffed)
I am reassured that 人日 and 农历新年 are 2 of the many blessings of being Chinese.
Also I foresee many more future return visits for the impeccable quality and taste of the Chinese cuisine offered at Imperial.
