Reunion after long separation is even better than one's wedding night.

hey Dearies,

How's your Chinese New Year Eve? :)
Its.definitely.a.REAL.blast.for.me. ♥

And now,shall we just let the feasting beginnn? Cuz' I simply can't wait for it already. heh.


You knew Chinese New Year is definitely around the corner as the feasts have started right? (: For my family, we kicked off the crazy season of indulging our stomachs with the Big Bowl Feast aka Poon Choi todayyyyyy (: Woohooo!

In case you didn't already know, Poon Choi  is a traditional type of dish originating from Hong Kong village cuisine. It is said that Poon Choi was cooked in large wooden wash basins to serve the multitudes ages ago. Things have evolved since then, and in most of the restaurants now, the Poon Choi is served in a metal basin/tray and its kept warm on a portable stove. Its generally more common in Hong Kong, but it has gained its popularity on our local shores recently too!

The dish can feed between 10 to 12 people since the portion is really big, as in humongous! I kid you not!

In fact, Poon Choi is a popular dish during Chinese New Year festivities. Prices may have gone up since,which I have totally no idea, but it was RM 258 for this platter this year. Heh. You can order this dish by calling them one day in advance and have it at home. How convenience right. But of course, you have to pay for the deposit which is for the container if you wish to bring it home laaaa :D

Ohh, and one of the oh-some thing about this dish is that the ingredients are layered, starting with the bottom layer consisting of the braised foods like pork knuckles, fish stomach, abalone, chicken feet(LIKE!!!!!) , beancurd, shrimp, and mushroom. 

The second layer, on the other hand, consisted of the rest of the Old McDonald's farm- roast duck, poached chicken, fish, and prawnsss. 

After we emptied the first layer, the treasures unfold. The essence from all the goodies that were cooked inside such as pork knuckle, stewed pork, dried oyster, fish maw, chicken feet, beancurd sheets, mushrooms, dried chestnut and a type of canned clams were seeped into the sauce to create a wonderful synergy of flavours. Nom nom. The gravy is simply irresistible.  Everyone of us loved the gravy so much that each of us literally drown it with the rich and flavourful essence. 

Now tell me, how could you resist it? :)

  Thank goodness it's a one a year thing though. Or else. can you imagine how much your cholesterol level     will shoot up! LOL

   I like prawnssssss! Especially large oness, Youuuu? :)

    It's the little things that make life beautiful, yes? ♥

    The chances of a reunion now are less likely. So learn to appreciate what you have in life! (:

 must LOU higher and higher and higher one right. heeeee.

HUAT ahhhhhhhhhhhhh :DDDDD

Its definitely one of the best I ever had. so yummylicious! (:

The crunchy flavours give your taste buds a delicious start. Nom nom nomm.

the leftover food.

By the way, finding this restaurant can be a nightmare if you're not familiar with Sungai Buloh area though. Just remember to keep going once you reached Jalan Welfare even if you think you've arrived at another country. Its just illusion I think.

And I think fasting before you gonna have a try is recommended! Since the portion is really largeeee! At least for me laaa. Teehee.

Definitely worth a try I would say! ☑
