U Food x 博藝會 陽澄金黃蟹宴 Crab roe feast

I was delighted to be invited to a crab roe tasting session at Spotlight recreation club and Ufood, not only is the food is good but the facilities there are grand.

Below is what I tried:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Shanghai style pork dumplings with crab meat:
When I removed the lid, the dumpling colour was golden and the smell was lovely.
There was lots of juice inside the dumpling.
There was so much crabmeat inside the dumpling that it had extremely rich crab taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Yangcheng lake hairy crab:
I havent had this for ages so I was really missing the taste. We were given two male crabs because the current crab season is male crabs.
The crab shell was so easy to open and once it was open, there was rich orange roe.
The roe was extremely delicious, similar to egg yolk.
There was some white bits in it which tasted delicious too, it was thick and sticky as well.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Snake soup:
The snake soup had too much ginger.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
After the snake soup, my mouth still tasted spicy hence the fish taste was slightly affected.
steamed cod filet with XO sauce:
The fish was nice and tender and the tofu was really smooth.
deep fried cod filet with salt and pepper:
This was quite nice, especially with the salt and pepper seasoning, however the batter was slightly too thick.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Deep fried roll:
Inside this fried roll was sliced bamboo shoots, chinese radish and taro.
The filling was lovely and creamy.
Sauteed shrimps with vegetables:
This was covered in crab roe sauce, and between the vegetable were a piece of Chinese ham and ginger.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Cabbage and meatball soup:
I liked this soup and it was chicken soup with meatballs, the meatballs had mushrooms in it.
The cabbage was full of chicken soup flavouring but they could have been cut into smaller pieces.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Crab meat udon:
The udon here was slightly different, it was flatter similar to Tagliatelle, which made is softer and absorbed the rich crab roe sauce.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Ginger tea dumplings:
These were deliciously filled dumplings with sesame and the ginger tea was pleasant to drink.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Aloe and purple rice pudding:
I really liked this dessert, the aloe on top looked really nice and the aloe and purple rice tasted good together.
