Royale Chulan Penang's Lunar New Year Dining Preview

My wife and I were joyful to be invited to preview the dishes that Royale Chulan Penang has prepared for the coming Lunar New Year celebrations. The preview was held at its main dining outlet, Sri Tanjung Cafe. As we walked towards the restaurant, we saw that the whole area has been done up for the celebration. There is even a festive pavilion gaily bedecked.

When we arrived, the restaurant team was still busy putting the final touches to the dishes. It was all well arranged, and every dish was meticulously labelled in English and Mandarin - the only hotel that we have come across to offer bilingual labels.

We had a wonderful time taking photos and afterwards joining in tossing the Yee Sang led by Royal Chulan Penang's General Manager, Mr Philip Theseira. And if that's not all, at the conclusion of the dinner, the hotel has so thoughtfully arranged a parting gift for each of us in the form of a Chinese New Year orange cake. It was a wonderful evening. Now let me show you the dishes we enjoyed.
