New Year's At Armada

Dad was pretty disappointed this Lunar New Year. He had been looking forward to the Japanese yee sang at Armada for some time, but when we had it this time round, it was way too salty, and completely unlike the one we devoured the last year. Could the absence of Executive Chef Chew Teik Chye, who was deservedly on leave to spend the year of the dragon with his family, have been the reason? Whatever it was, it was hard going to finish up the helping.
It's one of the best yee sang deconstructions I've had, but this year's fell short.
Even with able chef Suhaimi standing in for Chef Chew.
Still, there were lots of options for the RM65 CNY buffet (although in truth, we were all too stuffed to eat a lot). There were also gifts from the absent Chef Chew and hotel management, in the forms of some lovely oysters, and gorgeous assorted tempura.

Possibly the best oysters in Selangor!
Tempura to crunch on.
The damage for six adults (three senior citizens, three adults) was RM400.20. Still great value, if only we had the stomach capacity for it!
