With our modern day hectic\u00a0lifestyles, it is often difficult for extended\u00a0families to meet, let alone slow down and enjoy a hearty meal together.\u00a0 Which is why whenever families meet and dine, particularly for a family celebrations or festivities like Chinese New Year, we want to make it extra meaningful, extra significant, extra enjoyable. Therefore the selection\u00a0of food, location and service is important.<\/p>\n

Peony Jade<\/a> is one of our ‘go-to’ restaurants when we feel like an indulgent meal on\u00a0celebratory occasions. Besides their renowned Teochew Flaky Yam Mooncakes, they are also well-known for their tasty Cantonese cuisines and good\u00a0service. Our family also like the cosy dining atmosphere amidst its modern chinos ambiance. Imagine our delight when we received an invite for its CNY Food Tasting.\u00a0 Together with several other media friends, we were treated to an unparalleled gastronomic feast which kept us talking for days.<\/p>\n

To usher in an abundant and prosperous year of the sheep, Peony Jade<\/a> has specially commissioned \u201cEight Rhapsodies of Spring\u201d to make that all-important family meal extra memorable\u00a0so that families can talk about the occasion long after the meal is over. Featured are 8 simply delectable dishes:<\/p>\n

1. Bonsai-shaped Monies Tree Yu Sheng\u00a0 <\/strong>\u98ce\u751f\u6c34\u8d77,\u82b1\u5f00\u5bcc\u8d35\u53d1\u8d22\u76c6\u683d\u6447\u94b1\u6811\u9f50\u635e\u751f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bonsai is well-regarded as a centurion plant which represents longevity, harmony, peace and hope. This Yu Sheng is topped with 6 types of abundant premium seafood – Alaskan crab claws, lobster, tuna belly, Atlantic salmon, sweet shrimp, and ‘umi’ urchin – then tossed with Peony Jade’s unique sweet sauce, citrusy yuzu juice, and truffle oil. Homemade deep-fried thin lotus root chips, crispy fried vermicelli, roasted pine nuts, and toasted sesame seeds are added for an extra delicious crunch to enliven the dish. \u00a0Everyone at the table concurred this is one of the best\u00a0Yu Sheng we have ever tasted!<\/p>\n
