The Wembley's Chinese New Year Food Preview

My wife and I are so pleased to be invited to The Wembley's Chinese New Year food preview. It was held at Wembley Café on 17 January, 2019. The preview provides us a glimpse of what is to be available throughout the Chinese New Year season. We got to meet the restaurant's new executive chef, Chef Peter Chan, a very nice and experienced chef who led us to toss the Yee Sang.

Now let me show you all the various items which we enjoyed at the food preview.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
