Its alive Part 2 @ La La Chong Restaurant

1 & 2 - A Chinese New Year Dish -[ YEE SANG] - means literally ' LIVE FISH' 1. After it is assembled and 2 is prior to assembly. The raw salmon slices is what makes the dish so expensive. It can be substituted with raw jelly fish. There is also a vegetarian version but I have never had it. This is a very popular dish during Chinese New Year and is shared with family and friends to encourage prosperity and good luck for all. Everyone takes part in mixing all the ingredients together, making their wishes for the new year.





3 - La la - the restaurant's signature dish of clams cooked in white wine , ginger slices. 4. Mantis prawn [ seen in Part 1 ] becomes buttered prawn.













The fish dish [ Patin ] - steamed.
