Stir fried minced shrimp with lettuce
As the name implies, this dish of minced shrimp is to be eaten with lettuce.
Scooping up the minced shrimp onto the lettuce. If you can see, there are bits of eiu char koay in the dish that make this dish crunchy
Tadaa……
There were a few Taiwanese cold dishes available like this one marinated jellyfish with abalone.
Squid salad with five spicy sauce contains squid stuffed with pickle and served with the sauce

For oyster lovers, you will not get bored with the amount of oyster on this dish
Wok Fried Crabs with Satay Sauce
Tantalizing and delicous crabs served. The shells had been cooked until soft enough that it was easy to break them effortlessly. At least we could break with spoons and not hammer hehe

Steamed herbal black chicken soup is indeed nourishing, one of my favorite…wondering is this Cantonese food or Taiwanese?
i agreed with CK, I wonder that is Cantonese food or Taiwanese food…
ck, NKOTB,
let us bring this back to the chef and ask them the question
as authentic as these may be, not sure I’m completely sold, based on the food available. typical Chinese food?
PTP, please help us to ask also, why they do not have chau taufu, Ma lak pot, Wo tie (fried dumpling) n some other street food eh?? but if Hotel offers chau taufu, i not sure if the hotel guest will complain bo… lol….
too bad, im on diet lately (put on weight due to haojiak) :(:(…. else, i will definitely go for a try, oyster n crabs are my all time favorites!!! btw, guys, ur pics are really great!!!
J2Kfm,
definitely not all the foods available during the buffet is purely Taiwanese…
the ones we have highlighted, the five appetizers - Marinated jellyfish with abalone, steamed assorted egg, squid with five spices sauce. marinated salty clams and salad asparagus are Taiwanese cold dishes..
All the main dishes (hot dishes) are Taiwanese food with exception on Steamed herbal black chicken which we have to confirm first.
