Sloppy Chic

Chinese New Year is coming really soon, and I am so so looking forward to having my mom’s specialty - braised duckie again! But with all the hassles of preparing, my family actually sort of decided that for the next CNY, we will just eat out! (Save me from being scolded by my mom because I am very clumsy in kitchen).

If you are also looking for a place to eat out, you might want to consider this House of Tang in Bangsar, the Chinese New Year Prosperity Set Menu starts from RM488+, RM688+, to RM888+ for 10 pax.

行運齊撈生

Salmon Yee Sang with Crispy Shredded Treasures in Plum Dressing

For a start, of course we need to lou sang to kick off the CNY mood! I love the colorful dish, although it practically tastes similar everywhere, the trick is to have sufficient plum sauce the jazz up the dish!

福星添高照 干貝蚧肉冬瓜盅

Shark’s Fin Soup with Crab Meat and Dried Scallop in Winter Melon

The winter melon was one of the highlights as it looks REALLY cute! And the soup is so sweet.

榮華又富貴 紅燒元蹄

House of Tang Braised Pork Trotter

Everyone’s favorite of the night has to be this pork trotter. The meat was so tenderly soft, and with the gravy,the combination was perfect!

日式椒鹽明蝦 Japanese styles fleshy prawns (ming ha) and 亞參冬炎石斑魚 Assam ‘Tom Yam’ Garoupa Fish

When we were presented with the prawns, all of us admired the presentation. Don’t you just have to love the carrot-crafted pagoda?

The assam fish was done just right, not too sour nor spicy. We polished the plate with white rice.

香草燒焗雞 Baked Chicken with Herbs and Coconut Black Chicken.

I love the baked chicken as it was still juicy when served. And…ahhhh black chicken boiled in coconut! There was this unique taste in the soup, it is sweet yet light with all the coconut essence! Highly recommended!

東坡肉 Braised Pork with Soya Sauce

Ahh! Did you see the glazy pork? And thank god the fat is layered! So, at least I could skipped the top part

My favorite of the lots has to be the lotus root. It was sliced thinly and crunchy. Love it!

欖菜肉碎炒桂豆 French Beans with Preserved Olives and Minced Meat and 千層菜莆豆腐 Special Homemade Layered Beancurd

The beancurd was really special as there was even meat fillings in it!

Believe it or not, hokkien mee is actually one of the house specialties! I bet it would taste even more heavenly if it were hot from the wok.

全家好團圓 海底椰湯丸 Glutinous Rice Dumplings with Sea Coconut in Iced Lemon Syrup

No meal is complete without dessert! Love the colors of the dessert

步步高升好 香炸年糕 Crisp Fried Chinese Brown Sugar Cake and tau fu fah.

I am sure you have eaten  年糕 many times, but have you ever tried one which is white in color?

This concluded our grand CNY dinner..thanks to the wonderful host and Richard for arranging this.

Thank you chef Koh for making the night excellent!
