Dinner with Helen

Helen came back to Malaysia from Toronto for a visit. Manlin suggested we organise a dinner while she is here. So we had our dinner yesterday night at the Golden Dragon City Seafood Restaurant in Paramount Garden,PJ. KM Tan kindly consented to sponsor the dinner and so we had a gala of a time having a pre-Chinese New Year makan.

As usual, we had the yeesang and everyone lohei as high as possible to bring in prosperity! Next came to traditional shark fin soup with crab meat. Quite nice, after not having it for sometime! Suckling pig was served and everyone had their bite of the nice skin and tender meat! The pomfret in soy sauce,though small was good. Oysters,abalone and Chinese mushrooms was okay though the abalone seems to have lost its sweet fragrant and taste. Deep fried butter prawns was pretty tasty. I had one. This was followed by seasoned meat (liver sausage,meat sausage and dried duck) glutinous rice. Good one! We ended with pan-fried cakes and round dumpling balls!

The bill came to RM600+ and we thanked KM Tan for sponsoring it. We also wished him belated happy birthday as his birthday was 2 February.

Helen hope that we all keep in mind that Esther, Manlin and herself will be coming back in December 2008 and we should all get together for one gala occasion then ! The response was unanimous!
