This year my mum not so convenient to cook for this coming CNY reunion dinner. Thinking to eat at outside but normally during this festival mostly restaurant menu are those with family set dinner.

Normally lowest price also need at least RM599

Thinking to have a la carte dishes but hardly to find.

Budget around RM200 - RM300

Any recommendation?

200-300 for 10 pax ?

Grab food je

impossible for rm200-300 in Klang Valley.

Even Pun Choy also RM299 cheapest.

Ala carte, no need think.

Sad to say it, but, that's the reality. This is the time chinese restaurant "slaughter" you

No ala carte, all pre-cooked set meal, with 2 different time slot and charge at sky high inflated price.

you are not eating, you just burning money, show off status if you choose to eat in Chinese restaurant

yalo lou sang along half mai also RM60-70 liao. unless you just add one more meat and vege dish plus rice.

Easiest maybe you all do hotpot at home jer

even normal day rm300 for 10 pax also eat normal stuffs only lah..

we booked table since 2 months ago liao lo

per table need RM1k

just 6 pax (4 adults + 2 child)

KFC for 10pax already > 300

i think go shopping mall eat better lar. 4 adults + 2 child can lousang?
go yinkelou oriental can liao la.

in that case u can always order ala carte

problem is no restaurant mau ala carte, all set meal. Reason all pre-cook, confirmed which time slot, come, re-heat pre-cooked massed meal (cooked in afternoon or day b4), eat and go.

go luck finding a chinese restaurant now... mostly fully booked by now

you can change something new. how about hotpot? got lou sang also. price rm29 per pax also got

most of the restaurant will doing set meal in order to serve more people, they can prepare the food in advance and serve once customer arrived ...

If Ala carte probably just look for the normal chinese restaurant or HK style restaurant such as Kim gary, Wong Kok .. or else go to steamboat, easy

My mom is the kinda person who doesn't like big crowd so we had our early reunion dinner at seafood restaurant. My mom urged to try live tiger grouper i was a bit paranoid why not just order normal tilapia why waste money. But one bite fresh tiger grouper steamed in HK style sauce enough to be speechless.

The place we had was at cheras but according to the staff from last two weeks until cny all premium tables fully booked.

Maybe can try ur luck at normal seafood restaurant, but no high expectation. Thai seafood restaurant can try also. They have many ala carte like pineapple fried rice etc.

these type of high class kopitiam like Kim Gary, Wong Kok, closed early one on eve one

Coz they know no biz and no staff, everyone (Chinese staff and Chinese customers) all go home reunion dinner or go eat cekik darah reunion dinner at restaurant

even though those normal seafood restaurant, tai pai thong, bawah pokok or shoplot also goes by set meal, block timing...this is the only time they can slaughter u
