Hor ny in KL.....The Food

I have a early Chinese Year Fest sponsor by mine co after the ' brain washing' siminar I meant the siminar on how to be a 'super salemen' (Gosh! To achieve the target set I have to sell myslef also!). The food is prepare by Prince Hotel, I think rather expensive I guss about RM1,000-00 per table. So here are the food:-

The first dish is 'Yee Sang with Salmon' .Sorry about the messy pic, ( Actually I should take the pic before it was mess by the guys sitting with me on the same table, well to tell u the true I am more interest in the ladies sitting on the next table while I am having all sort of hor ny though going through mine mind, thus forgot to take pic first.) Apparantly this dish is a must to celebrate CNY in W'Msia. It consist of several small dishes of sweet cracker or koropok & est all sweet in taste except for the raw salmon, yes raw wan, taste yawky to me. U mix up the small dishes with ur chopstick tossing the food as hight as possible as the same yelling 'Yee Sang' at the top of ur voice. ( Geee!! I must remember to be carefull with the tossing as I nearly toss the food on top of the guy sitting opposit me!!) Anyway this is the only dish with left over hense I suppost KL people also don't like it . They only like to toss it for money I am told.
No 2. is 'Barbeque Platter with Char Siew Chicken & Roast Duck' . Taste OK to me but the food so litter, I manage to get 2 mouthfull before it is finished. One chicken & one roast duck!( U will notice that I took the pic before it is being eaten as I will now consentract on eating instead of the ladies now, as I now relise the food here is serve for small size stomach KL people as 'Hor ny Ang Moh' is big he have to consentract or else he will be hungry)

No 3. is 'Szechuan Seafood Soup' it is similar to our 'shark fin' soup or 'sea cucumber' soup except I didn't find any seafood inside and the taste of vinerger is very strong.

No 4. is 'Wok Fried Sliced Grouper with Black Mushrooms' . To me this is just like u what u have at home. That is grouper stir fried together with black mushroom. I manage to have 3 mouthfull before it is finished.

No 5. is 'Braised Vegetable with Mushrooms & Beancurd Skin'. This is actually green culiflower with mushroom & beancurd skin. Taste OK.
No 6. is 'Fried Rice Yong Chow Style'. To me it is just plain fried rice. Rather plain with not much ingrident.( It is normal to have fried rice included in a fest?? To me if it is a CNY fest it is suppose to be full of exotic dish which u don't have nomally. OK 'Yee Sang' is special, but fried rice??? U might as well inculde fried mee & kui tew & bee hoon!!!) Anyway I must tell u that it is the fried rice that save me from hungry stomach. I have 2 bowl full.

The last dish is the desert ' Hot Gingko Nuts with White Fungus & Barley' Hemmm! This is a new to me. Taste Ok. But I perfer flesh fruits or Ice Cream.

All in all only 7 dishes. I suppose it is normal to have only 7 dishes in a fest in KL. Well over here where I live it is normal to have 9 dishes. When mine boss pay me a visit last time I order one 12 dishes dinner for him!! Full of exotic food like deer meat, bat meat, river terapine, flesh water gouper ' Soo Hock' ( I understand 'Soo Hock' is very expensive in kl 100g is RM20.00 so image mine boss reaction when I told him I order 2, 2kg 'Soo Hock' he say that is real expensive. He! He! Actually it only cost RM28-00 per kg here.) And the fest all 12 dishes for 8 cost only RM250-00!!! ( As I known the restaurant owner.) According to mine boss that will cost at lest RM2,500-00 in kl. No wander KL people have high salary. The cost of food is damn high. With 3 figure salary like me I will end up as gigolo sooner then later if I get to work in KL to survice. I do hope mine boss didn't see this entry.
