Dong Dong Dong Qiang…… Chinese New Year Songs are playing everywhere and Chinese New Year decoration has been set up across all the malls and hotels, as it is only 3 more weeks to go for Chinese New Year!!! Eastin Hotel always has nice decoration for festive season.

Eastin Hotel Penang has launched its Chinese New Year Dinner Buffet and I’m honored for being invited to try them out.

All kind of Appetizer, Smoked Salmon and different types of Sushi.

For a healthier choice, you can start your meal with the salad. It comes with Thousand Island Dressing, Vinaigrette Dressing, French Dressing, Mango Dressing and Italian Dressing. For cheese lovers, there are cheese and crackers too. The pie shape Bridel cheese is good! A MUST TRY! If Salad and Cheese are not your cup of tea, you can also start with some fruits as well.

Seafood and Sashimi are the hot items of the day.

It’s all about CRABS!!! Besides the Crabs and Snow Crab Legs, other seafood includes Prawns, Oyster Kill Patrick, Mussels, Scallops and Slipper Lobsters.

Sashimi Boat is the one you cannot miss, if you are a Sashimi lover like me. The White Tuna is the best among all. Yum!

For the Hot Dishes, they are: Creamy Mix Seafood with Cheese, Tandoori Lamb Chop with Cucumber Raita, Angel Hair with Bolognese Sauce, Pan Fried Fish with Saffron Sauce and Romeo Sour Curry Fish.

Also, Wok Fried Tiger Prawn with Salted Egg Gravy, Stir-fried Broccoli with Mushroom and Sea Cucumber, Pineapple Fried Rice, Juliet Coconut Squid, Classic Szechuan Hot & Spicy Soup and Curry Leave Thai Sweet Kapar.

After the main, it’s Dessert time!! Berries Mizu, Red Velvet, Classic Cheese Cake, Waffle with Condiments, French pastry, House Pudding, Sweet Roll in the Heart and Lovely Banana Chocolate Crumble are among them.

Since it is a Chinese New Year Dinner Buffet, how can we miss the Lou Sang activity?

Since it is huge, we were not given the normal chopstick, but the long chopstick that the hawker noodle stall is using! First time ever! Huat Ah!
