More Chinese New Year tasting session for this brand new year and I am glad that I am attended last week. My friends told me that Peony Jade is one of the best restaurants that serve consistent quality foods. Peony Jade restaurant is a Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine that has been more than 14 years in counting. The CNY tasting session was held at the branch located at Keppel Club within is inconvenience for those who are taking public transport. But fret not, you can always visit their other branch located at Clarke Quay via accessible public transport instead.

Moving on to Peony Jade’s Eight New Festive Creations in Year 2016, here are the 4 out of 8 delicacies that I tried on that night. They are available from 14 January to 22 February 2016.
