A Cantonese Lunar New Year feast we could all use right now
LA TimesPoon Choi, a Cantonese Lunar New Year dish, is on the menu at Atlantic Seafood and Dim Sum in Monterey Park. For this year’s Lunar New Year celebration, which begins Feb. 12, Lee is constructing his most elaborate dish since opening the restaurant a year ago — poon choi, a one-pot feast grounded in centuries of Cantonese culture. Along with poon choi, Johnny Lee’s Lunar New Year specials at Pearl River Deli will include a Tray of Togetherness, featuring lotus root chips with haw powder, Ovaltine fudge, peanut sesame brittle and candied ginger. “Usually, we’d be serving 500 people for Chinese New Year,” said Simon Yung, a manager at Atlantic Seafood and Dim Sum in Alhambra, which takes to-go reservations for poon choi with three days’ notice.
