Modern refresh for Cantonese classics

Szechuan Style Sliced Seabass Fish offers a satisfying crunch and fragrant spicy sauce. — Photos: ONG SOON HIN/The Star Updated menu at KL restaurant offers mix of familiar favourites alongside novel creations TRADITIONAL Cantonese cooking gets a fresh take at this stylish city spot where authentic flavours are preserved, but presented with a lighter, more contemporary touch. YEN, the Chinese restaurant in W Kuala Lumpur, has recently updated both its menu and decor to better reflect this philosophy. The dining space is now open and filled with natural light, designed to make the most of the Kuala Lumpur skyline. The airy layout is complemented by sleek private dining rooms and a dramatic banquet table, adaptable for everything from quiet gatherings to special celebrations. Executive Chinese chef Tan Kim Weng has curated the menu to reflect a balance of tradition and innovation. Drawing inspiration from Cantonese cuisine, he brings in refined techniques and ingredients to elevate familiar dishes while also introducing new creations that align with evolving diner preferences. Tan has curated the refreshed menu to reflect a balance of tradition and innovation. 'The refreshed menu offers a mix of familiar favourites alongside a selection of new dishes. 'Many diners today are looking for more than just a good meal,' he said. 'They want an experience and that is what we have tried to deliver through our presentation and flavours.' One of the notable additions is the Szechuan Style Sliced Seabass Fish, a flavourful appetiser that comes highly recommended. Tan said the fish was air-dried for 48 hours before being deep-fried with spices and coated in a mildly spicy sesame sauce. The result is a dish that is crisp, aromatic and nicely balanced. The Shunde Spring Onion Pancakes are surprisingly moreish as they are crispy on the outside with a soft, almost bread-like interior. Despite being deep-fried, they are light and not at all greasy. Double-Boiled Chicken Soup and Shunde Spring Onion Pancakes (below). The spring onions give a gentle, herby flavour, while the sweet and tangy chilli dip ties everything together. Served on a metal rack, the presentation adds a fun, playful touch to the table. The YEN Golden Duck is a signature dish that puts a spin on the classic Peking duck. Roasted until the skin is beautifully crisp and golden, it is paired with a thin bean curd sheet for an extra layer of crunch. Served with hoisin and sesame paste, fresh cucumber and soft mantou buns, each bite offers a nice balance of textures and flavours. Finished with a touch of caviar and served tableside, the dish has a subtle hint of luxury without feeling overdone. Available in full or half portions (requiring 48 hours' notice), the duck is also reinterpreted into a second dish of Wok Fried Diced Duck Meat with Dioscorea Yam, Black Fungus and Truffle Sauce. Here, earthy tones and textures mingle with crunch from snap peas and a hint of umami-rich truffle. The soup course is given a theatrical touch with the Double-Boiled Chicken Soup, served in a teapot. Despite the playful presentation, the flavours are grounded; hearty yet clean, enriched with fresh ginseng and liver-nourishing herbs, plus a hint of scallop sweetness. Rounding off the experience is a luxe take on comfort food: Wok Fried Rice with Diced Miyazaki A5 Wagyu Beef. Tossed with spring onions and a rich XO chilli sauce, this dish delivers just a touch of heat and a satisfying wok hei that speaks of skillful hands at the stove. We also sampled a few dim sum offerings, with the Fish-Shaped Prawn Dumpling being the stand out. Served in a savoury pumpkin sauce, the dish is colourful and playful in presentation. The prawn filling is fresh and tender, while the creamy sauce leans more savoury than sweet in a subtle twist that works well with the dumpling. YEN, W Kuala Lumpur, Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur.

Banquet offers spirited toast to Chinese cuisine

Wines and spirits have long been used in Chinese cuisine, not only for their refreshing or earthy, cask-aged flavour but also for the aromatic fragrance they impart to dishes. To showcase the marvel of various spirits and liquors in Chinese cuisine, a team of chefs from the Oriental Group has crafted a menu for their annual Grand Banquet Series titled 'The Tradition of Liquors in Chinese Cuisine'. The menu, by group senior executive chef Paul Lee and chef Wong Chin Leong, along with executive chefs Jay Chan and Vincent Ong and barbecue chef Kent Yam, pays homage to the rich cultural and culinary legacy of pairing and infusing a variety of liquors into gourmet creations. Group founder and chairman Datuk Seri Phillip Siew said the group had hosted a few special dinners every year. 'Previously, we partnered with international chefs. 'This time around, our team created a menu that paired with different wines and liquors.' The dinner began with a combination of four dishes showcasing the incorporation of different alcoholic beverages. Pickled radish roses with Japanese umeshu offered a tangy, plum-scented flavour to excite the palate. Spring rolls filled with prawn paste and (below) steamed wild Sultan fish. Spring rolls filled with prawn paste and a hint of Chinese wine featured finely diced water chestnuts for a satisfying crunch. For the drunken chicken, Shao Xing wine was used in the marinade, with balsamic vinegar pearls added for an extra tang. The final starter was chilled Japanese sake sea clam. Next, guests were presented with four main dishes highlighting the influence of wine and spirits in Chi­nese cuisine. The first was XO Cognac stuffed treasure duck with five-head South African abalone in a pool of thick, flavourful stock. 'After the deboned duck was stuffed and braised in a rich stock made from chicken and duck bones, a shot of cognac was added to the dish,' said Lee. The meat that soaked up the essence of the stock was tender and savoury, while the shot of XO cognac lent earthy notes and a layer of complexity to the dish. The plump abalone and yam in the filling were a delight. For the steamed wild Sultan fish, Lee's innovative method in using eight-year-aged Hulu Shao Hsing, spring onion, and rooster's fat to enhance the flavour, brought something special to the dish. According to Lee, roosters generally have lower fat content but the fat has more intense flavour. The perfectly steamed fish, weighing in at about 2.5kg, had a firm texture and a subtle richness, with the Hulu Shao Hsing wine adding a fragrant aroma. Next was a duo of bite-sized dishes, Suckling Pig with 'Mei Kui Lu' (a rose essence baijiu) Glutinous Rice Rolls and Cinnamon-Whiskey Braised Pork. The crispy skin, wrapped around a fragrant glutinous rice filling, was served alongside tender, caramelised pork belly that gave it a sweet and savoury taste. The final main dish showcased prawn paste stuffed into Morel mushrooms, stir-fried with baby corn, asparagus, ginkgo, lily bulb, Chinese celtuce and Chinese yam in a rich house-made dried scallop sauce. Dessert was a perfect pairing of red bean paste with aged tangerine peel and a mini version of the restaurant's award-winning Teochew taro puff. The Teochew taro puff's lacy outer shell enveloping mashed taro and egg yolk was savoury and appetising, a nod to the upcoming Mid-Autumn festival. The Grand Banquet Series is priced at RM2,988++ per table of 10 at the 11 Oriental Group Restaurants. The series will be featured at The Ming Room (Aug 13), Tang Room (Aug 14), Noble House (Aug 15), Noble Mansion (Aug 21), Oriental Sun (Aug 22), Ruyi (pork-free) (Aug 25), Oriental Pavilion (Aug 26), Oriental Star (Aug 27) Oriental Parade (Aug 29), Oriental Treasure (Aug 30) and The Han Room (Sept 9).

Business hours: 11am to 3pm, 6pm to 11pm (Mon-Sat); 10am to 3pm, 6pm to 11pm (Sun and public holiday). Non-halal. This is the writer's personal observation and is not an endorsement by StarMetro.

Chinese Film Festival opens in Zimbabwe, spotlighting cultural exchange, cooperation

HARARE, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- An enthusiastic audience of film lovers gathered on Tuesday at the iconic Westgate Cinemas in Zimbabwe's capital, Harare, for the opening ceremony of the China Film Festival, a vibrant celebration of cultural exchange between China and Zimbabwe. The inaugural festival kicked off with Jackie Chan's action-comedy Panda Plan, captivating guests including government officials, filmmakers, and cinephiles. "It was quite amazing, and the fact that it had my favorite actor, Jackie Chan, made it more special," said Belinda Musemburi, a Zimbabwean film producer. Ahead of the festival, Zimbabwe's Deputy Minister of Sport, Recreation, Arts, and Culture, Emily Jesaya, emphasized the festival's role in strengthening bilateral relations through cinema. "This Chinese Film Festival, which we are celebrating today, is a celebration of the relationship between the countries, China and Zimbabwe, and the importance of celebrating the relationship through film festivals is because we respect the role that arts and culture play," Jesaya told Xinhua. Amid deepening ties between the two countries, Jesaya noted that the festival creates opportunities for cooperation in film production and cultural exchange. "It is also important for us as a country, as Zimbabwe, because this year we are also working towards a strategy of reviving our film industry. This is an opportunity for us to collaborate with Chinese artists as well, so that we also boost our Zimbabwean artists," she added. Isaac Madzivanyika, another filmmaker and producer who attended the ceremony, echoed her sentiments, highlighting film as a powerful medium for cross-cultural connection. "Filming is all about the culture, showing people the culture that you believe in, so having the collaboration of Zimbabwe and China is a good thing. It's very important for us to have collaborations with the Chinese in terms of culture..." he said. Chinese Ambassador to Zimbabwe Zhou Ding also addressed the gathering, emphasizing cinema's power to transcend borders and foster mutual understanding. "Today's film festival adds another chapter to our cultural connections. Cinema, the art of light and shadow, is a universal language that transcends borders and speaks directly to the heart. A powerful theme can bridge divides and dissolve differences, allowing us to glimpse into each other's lives, histories, cultures, values, and shared aspirations," he said. Jointly organized by the Chinese Embassy in Zimbabwe, the China Film Administration, and Zimbabwe's Ministry of Sport, Recreation, Arts, and Culture, the two-day festival will feature four Chinese films. The event is part of the celebrations marking the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Zimbabwe, aimed at promoting cultural exchange and further strengthening bilateral ties.
