Poon Choi - Restaurant LYJ Sungai buloh

 

2011 birthday gone already~~ =( which means I am getting old.
Anyway, treated nice food from my friends~ The food that I crave for 2 years.

盆菜 - POON CHOI  (Believe me, this is the translation I got from Google Translate.)

This is the 1st time I eat Poon Choi. So excited! hahaha..
I had been told many times that Sungai Buloh Poon Choi is the best!
Thanks to Jennifer (my friend), she found out the restaurant and called all friends to celebrate my birthday together. (Touched!)

Let me google the Poon Choi history for you 1st! =p
Poon Choi (pronounced: [pʰun˩ʦʰɔy]), also known as pun choi or Big Bowl Feast, is a traditional type of dish originating from Hong Kong village cuisine. It may also be found in different parts of Hong Kong. It is served in wooden, porcelain or metal basins.

It was said that Poon Choi was invented during the late Song Dynasty. When Mongol troops invaded Song China, the young Emperor fled to the area around Guangdong Province and Hong Kong. To serve the Emperor as well as his army, the locals collected all their best food available, cooked it, and because there were not enough containers, put the resulting dishes in wooden washbasins. In this way, Poon Choi was invented.[1] Ip, Stephen, The Standard, Friday, April 23, 2010, Volume 3, No. 153, p. 33.
