Sam You…how I love this
restaurant. I was there again this afternoon – was invited to a baby’s full
moon celebration. The lovely baby was quiet the entire time we were having our
feast – well, she has learnt about manners….fast….from such a tender age!
The first two dishes are not
from the restaurant. As with most Chinese full moon celebrations, the
confinement lady will ‘show off’ her skills during the meal. And these 2 dishes
were of course what she cooked for us that day :-
Pork trotters in vinegar –
slightly too sour for my liking. I was surprised to see that this dish had lots
of black beans in it. Frankly I’ve never ever seen black beans in any of the
pork trotters in vinegar I’ve ever eaten.
Chicken soup -with lots of ginger and Chinese rice wine. 1
sip and I could tell I didn’t really like Chinese rice wine – very sweet!
The following were the dishes
prepared by Sam You:-
First and foremost – lotus roots
with sweet peas and celery. I love the
crunchiness of the lotus roots as well as that of the celery. The wok hei
(charring from heat) was sufficient and the dish was excellent.
Tofu – deep fried and served
with chilli sauce – I’ve never been a tofu fan but this one did tease my
tastebud. It was flavourful and the texture was not too soft.
Steamed cod fish - Fresh cod fish always taste good on its
own..so this is what I call a ‘no frills’ dish that brings out the wonderful taste
of the cod fish. Brilliant!
I’ve reviewed the following
dishes before in my previous blog so I shall just show you some pictures taken
during the celebration.
