Ever since the dining restriction was lifted, people has been dining out and having group/wedding/birthday/family gathering feast in restaurants.
Recently a 'rich aunt' celebrated her 70-something birthday and invited all the relatives to her birthday banquet at a nearby restaurant.
It was a 9 course meal similar to those wedding banquet.
For starter, we had cold platter aka 4 types-of-meat/seafood appetiser....*sorry for the terrible description, it has a nice Chinese name for this dish but i couldn't translate
chicken soup with fish maw, mushroom...
steamed fish in soy sauce
2 types of prawns, deep fried ones and cooked in black sauce
Spanish Iberico pork ribs
Fresh salads to eat with the ribs
Braised mushroom with abalone and broccolis
fried longevity noodles
and lastly desserts (no picture)....
It was a sumptuous dinner and best of all, she paid for the entire meal, and refusing our angpows.
Food quality and quantity is consistent as this is an established Chinese restaurant. Quick and efficient service too.
The meal is said to be roughly around RM150 per pax, with drinks and wine.
Here's the full menu (if you can read Chinese)....
*I could only admire the neat handwriting....
Thank you aunt for the dinner treat. May she be blessed with abundance health and wealth😄

Long time didn't have such Chinese cuisine. I always look forward to the cold dish. Happy birthday to your aunt.
What a lavish feast macam wedding banquet! I also have a rich aunty but she is very kedekut. LOL!
Lolx! 😂
Wah, I also want to eat food like these but I can only eat at most 3 tablespoonfuls from each dish. How many tables did she have for her birthday banquet. may she live long long with good health and treat you all to a banquet like this every year for her birthday.
Oh, I also ate here (their KL branch lah) courtesy of an invitation and the food was good. I see you had a salad of capsicium, lettuce & tomatoes served with your iberico pork while the one I had was served with ice plant (which was so good). I had their signature prawns (with garlic sauce) while you had it done two ways. I think we had the same fish dish too coz it was served not whole but in slices. Your aunty is very "tai fong" to invite your family to dinner and not accept any ang pows in return...lol. Well, you all can always 'pool' together to get her a nice gift later on. ^_~
Since the pandemic, haven't had any course dinner. Love the mouth watering dishes.
