Chinese New Year is just two weeks away! By now, most of you would have booked a restaurant to have a grand reunion feast. However, if you have not decided a place, you can check out CNY dine-in menus or buffets from Hilton Hotels.
In Malaysia, there’s three (03) Hilton Hotels available for your choosing. It can either be Toh Yuen (Hilton, Petaling Jaya) or Chynna (Hilton, KL) and Double Tree (Hilton, KL). Each restaurant carries a selection of Chinese delights and delectable dine-in menus that’s bound to astound you.

I was invited for a tasting session and tried some of the delish dishes from each menu. Some of the memorable dishes includes the below:
Double Boiled Wolfberry with Chicken minced meat and Dried Scallop Soup
Kudos to the chef for creating this! The chicken minced meat totally soaked up the sweetness of the broth. Every spoonful was simply delish with an interesting chewy texture. It bears a similarity to ‘Mushroom Soup’ texture and I bet the kids will love this!
Braised Oriental Style Duck served with Steam Flower Bun
Another great dish, is this braised duck filled with flavoursome herbs. The sauce is smashingly good and the braised duck meat is soft and easily falls off from the bones. Take a soft fluffy steam bun, add in slices of duck meat and topped with the sauce to savor the incredible taste.
Deep Fried Tiger Prawn Meat with Red Dragon fruits Mayonnaise sauce
Who would have thought Dragon fruits can go well with mayonnaise sauce? It totally caught us by surprise that the combination of fruit’s sweetness and tangy mayo can be so appetizing. Add in the crispiness and freshness of the tiger prawn meat, each bite is simply succulent.
Combination crystal jelly Red Pomegranate fruits with crispy “Nian GAO”
This dessert is one of the best I’ve tried in a CNY menu. Not overly sweet, it seats rather nicely on my taste bud and I can’t help myself from indulging more than one piece!

Some notable dishes I’ve tried at the review includes:
Batter fried crispy chicken with yellow curry sauce
Superbly fried thinly batter crisp chicken topped with generous yellow curry sauce with a tinge of spice. Certainly got my palate asking for more.
Ten Grain rice stuffed with chicken floss
A delish healthy dish presented in ‘sushi’ format. The grain rice has a chewy crunchy texture and is actually quite sweet. I loved this dish!
Combination of snow white coconut jelly, Nian Gao roll with cheddar cheese with macadamia nut and Musang king durian
This creative dessert definitely deserves a mention. The ‘nian gao’ gooey texture mixed really well with the sweetness of musang king durian and the macadamia nut provides it with a crunchy texture. Wrapped together with melting cheddar cheese and you’ve got a winning combination!
