Canto Food I
2009 Holiday Special Food Part 3
Hey folks! Sorry to keep you guys waiting! Yesterday was quite a busy day so it slipped my mind to update the blog daily! Anyway, today we will look at a 2-part series on cantonese food. Personally, I can't really distinguish between cantonese food and food from other regions but nonetheless, they are all tasty!

All these photos are shot at the Dragon Phoenix restaurant which have a long history of cooking cantonese food. The shop owner who is the son of the founder mentioned that the yam ring sold in their restaurant is the first in singapore. It used to be of a vegetarian nature but has now been adapted to have meat for more variety:)

Have you eaten black pepper crab before? I guess quite a lot of people has but what about white pepper ones? This dish combines both pepper crabs in just one dish. White pepper gives a more 鲜甜 taste while the black pepper gives a spicy punch to your taste buds. A must try if you love crabs!
Lastly, we also had "seafood shabu shabu" at the food tasting session. The seafood are very fresh and we love it too~!

Trivia: Dragon Phoenix Restaurant sells mooncakes during mid autumn festival season! And one of their most popular is cheese mooncake. So if you are thinking of buying mooncakes soon, can go there!
