SOON & SHELINE'S WEDDING DINNER.

My nephew Soon and his newlywed wife Sheline's wedding, like all other weddings was bound to has some hiccups but luckily it was kept to a minimal.

The whole family was on hands to help them out by welcoming guests, friends and relatives and ushering them to their assigned seats.

The dinner started on time and in between the 8 course dinner were romantic music, video and slide shows of the radiant and beautiful couple instead of those noisy Karaoke singing.

After the dinner, every one gave the thumbs up for the good food served.

Spring Garden Deluxe four and cold combination platter with celery, scallop, chicken/crabstick rolls, deep fried fishpaste stuffed beancurd sheet and a cold dish filled with jelly fish/vegetarian abalone was a good appetizer and it was emptied within minutes as every one was hungry.

Braised Shark's fin soup with scallops and dried seafood-was cooked to perfection-goes well with pickled green chillies and black vinegar.

Steamed Promfret-smooth and meaty with no after fishy smell served on a plateful of peanut oil/top grade soy sauce and garnished with cilantro and spring onion.

Steamed Chicken with Chinese herbs- was fragrant, tender and meaty.

Tiger prawns prepared in two varieties-visually pleasing-done in 2 styles i.e. poached and topped with mayonnaise and buttered with fragrant flaky butter/egg strands-sweet and succulent.

Braised Sea cucumber with earthy flavored Shiitake mushroom, sliced chewy Abalone Volute and served on the side with blanched Broccoli.

Hong Kong style Glutinous rice cooked with chicken ham, dried shrimp and garnished with chopped spring onion- was a bit sticky but fulfilling.

The sweet dessert of double boiled pear was filled with lots of white fungus and Lily bulbs- was nothing to shout about -the sweet fancy duets of Mua chi and pan cake complemented it well!

A toast to the newlywed! Yum Sing !!!!

GARDEN PALACE SEAFOOD RESTAURANT SDN BHD.

This is the second time we are having dinner at Garden Palace Seafood Restaurant Sdn Bhd, we tried them out during Chinese New Year's Eve-verdict- GOOD. The old man Captain was a familiar face-found out that he was from Restoran King Crab in Taman Megah and the Chef cum owner was from Restoran Rasa Sayang in Damasara Jaya-a creative and accomplished chef. I was surprised with the excellent effort put into every dish that they served. The presentation was visually pleasing, taste excellent and the fresh ingredients used are what i would had only expected from 5 star restaurant. We were recommended the sharks fin soup on offer for only rm9.80/bowl, crabs at rm25/kg and their signature dishes. The restaurant is fully air conditioned and parking is ample except on Thursday because of the pasar malam.

Sharks fin soup-served on a mini casserole with a wax flame under it to keep warm-the superior broth was filled with sharks fin, crab meat and red crab's roe-satisfying with a delicate flavor-rm9.80/bowl

Pan fried BBQ pork ribs (3 pieces cut into halves) tossed with secret sauce, ginger juice and Hua Diao wine-sinfully good and yummy-rm24/
