Usher the Year of the Pig @ Li Yen, The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur
CNY is here in real soon! Have you start tossing Yee Sang and cheers with your friends and family? I am pretty excited with CNY but also nervous at the same time, because I haven’t start preparing anything! Ok, cut my crap and let’s follow me to…
Li Yen

Do not leave without their Lap Mei Fan – Steamed Clay Pot Rice with Chinese Waxed Meat 瓦煲臘味飯 ! This is always the must have traditional dish during Chinese New Year; made with Chinese sausages specially flown in from Hong Kong, this dish requires up to 45 minutes to prepare for the flavours of the vegetables, Chinese herbs and meat to infuse into the rice leaving a distinct and rich flavour.
