Whew… have disappeared for more than a week! So time to quit bumming around, get over the holiday mood and get back to blogging! 🙂
Over the Chinese New Year, a the tour guide from Southeast Asia Travel Blog sent me an email, asking about the typical types of food one would eat during the Chinese New Year. So I happily took some photos and sent it to him along with some descriptions, which later appeared on his blog. Do check out the write up and gallery here!
Meanwhile…some CNY food photos….
Kuih kapek from the buffet line at Spice Market Cafe, Rasa Sayang Resort
Ribbon biscuit
Peanut cookies and dried prawn rolls
My favourite ‘Nian Gao’ or ‘Ti Kuih’ (in Hokkien) I love them steamed and eaten with dessicated coconut. Haven’t eaten them yet this year, cause my mom hasn’t had time to steam them and buy the dessicated coconut!
Pineapple tarts!! My very very favourite CNY cookie! 🙂
And what is Chinese New Year without longans and mandarin oranges?
Last but not least… some lion dance photos…
I tell you I kinda got freaked out a bit by them lions. Because they came into the restaurant, which was kinda cramped (with all the food and the people). Nearly got mowed down by the lions as they maneuvered their way around! 😛
Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Still got Chap Goh Meh to look forward to! 🙂
wah ahaha…it seems everyone went to Rasa Sayang for cny dinner…went to wrong place ady…aih…
anyway my fav cookie is pineapple tart too!!! Very hard to find those that has super buttery flavour in it (i mean those using natural butter)…
Rasa Sayang serves kuih kapit at the buffet? WOW that’s pretty rare I think.
Pineapple tarts are my favorite too hehe.. sapu-ed the whole tin we made myself
Kuih Kapit at the buffet line???
Can’t wait for you to show us some pics in Rasa Sayang.
kuih kapit …wah your photos still have tit bits in them…mine are all empty save for some crumb or aroma……lol…….my mum usually hides her stash so they dun disappear before CNY!
jian – yeah its hard to find really buttery pineapple cookies…
vkeong – yep, they had kuih kapit at the buffet. gives its a more festive feel. 🙂 guess everyone loves pineapple tarts!!
