Shang Palace Chinese Executive Chef Tan Kim Weng has put his personal touch on these delicious hand-made rice dumplings which are pork-free.
The four varieties are: Cantonese red and white glutinous rice dumpling with abalone and supreme spicy sauce, Hong Kong rice dumpling with dried scallop and assorted nuts, Nyonya rice dumpling with spiced dried shrimps and Sweetened rice dumpling with kidney beans and chestnut.
These rice dumplings will be available for takeaway or dine-in from 28 May to 20 June. For more information, call (03) 2074 3904 or email [email protected] or visit our site at www.shangri-la-specials.com.
Every year the Rice Dumpling Festival is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar to honour Qu Yuan, a famous scholar-poet in ancient China who lived from 340-278 BC. Qu Yuan was also minister in his home state of Chu. He had advocated reforms but the Emperor would not listen to his advice.
