CNY Makan Part 2- Shang Place


2nd CNY makan was with my colleagues at Shang Place found at Krystal Point. We took the set course menu which was priced 148 nett. The dishes were not of those 8 course type but we had dishes served chu char style (with rice).


First started off with some peanuts...while waiting for my colleagues to arrive.

Dish 1: Yee Sang
Yee Sang was colourful. Can imagine how much colouring were in those RED and GREEN things. But despite the strong colours, taste wise was good. But funny thing, it did not have those "powder spices" to put. hmmm?


Loh Yee Sang!

Dish 2: Schezuan Soup
Soup was an extra order from the set. Instead of the usual Sharks Fin soup we ordered the Schezuan soup instead. Was a good choice. I liked it. It was sour and not spicy. Just good for me.

Dish 3: Fish Curry
This was normal. Nothing wow about it. Fish slices had a strong fishy taste to it which kinda turned me off.

Dish 4: Sweet Sour Prawns
The size of this dish was miserable!!! Taste wise, was good but man, those prawns were so small!! There's more vegetables in it than prawns.


Dish 5: Tofu with Dried Shrimp
Normal common dish which tasted alright.


Dish 6: Spare Ribs in Lotus Leaf
This was something new for me. Meat was nice and tender and tasty. Can't really explain how it tasted like, but it was good.


Dish 7: Broccoli with Mushrooms and Scallops
Tasted like any broccoli dish. Scallops were the main attraction here.


Dish 8: Ostrich in Black Pepper Sauce
This was good. Meat was soft and tender. Black pepper taste was strong and good.


Dessert- Peanut Soup with Lotus Paste Pancake
We extra ordered this. It is my favourite dessert which I like to have in any Chinese Restaurant. So you can guess who influenced the rest of the colleagues to order...hehehe. Peanut soup was nice, not too sweet, just nice and lemak. Pancake on the other hand was good too...oh lovely to have this again...!! Mouth watering now. Does anyone know of any good places that serves this? wouldn't mind some recommendations.
