Dear SHC Friends,<\/p>\n

Do you believe in drinking soup as a culture for life longevity ? Well, the HongKongers and Southern Chinese in China have done it.  As Chinese and especially the Cantonese, we were told by our mom, grandma, or even great grandma that drinking soup regularly is good for our body. <\/p>\n

Basically, tonic soup is very nourishing to the soul, it improves blood circulations, boost energy and also increase one immunity level. It is also proven to be good for the overall well being. <\/p>\n

There are many varieties of herbal soups. Do check this out if you want to know more on Chinese Herbal receipes on soup and its articles  : http:\/\/herbal.recipes.googlepages.com\/index.html<\/a>
(Disclaimer : By the way, the author is also Susan, but it’s not me……..) \"emoticon\"<\/p>\n

Last weekend, about twenty of us (SHCians) attended a brief talk on the secret cum preparation of chinese herbal tonic soup  at “H.K. BEST SOUP” Restaurant. The owner\/chef (???) is from Hong Kong, a highly respectable cook and is specialized in double-boiled soup. He is also a famous column writer on soup preparation\/cooking in our local Chinese newspaper, ????. <\/p>\n

For those who are curious and also to experience what Chef ? have in store for us, we are organizing a Hong Kong (Cantonese) cuisine dinner in April. This special value for money menu which Chef ? quoted for us, should not be missed !  For $220.00 per table, we are having “Pen Cai” (??) as our main course and also a special double-boiled wild yam or "Huai Shan" (??) soup. That’s not all, please scroll down to see the list of food in the menu below. This works out to be $22.00 per person nett<\/font><\/strong> only. <\/p>\n

Read more about "Huai Shan" and its goodness here : http:\/\/herbal.recipes.googlepages.com\/articles_30.html<\/a><\/p>\n

(Note : for those not familiar (including me !)\"emoticon\"  “Pen Cai” (??) is the next popular dish after “Buddha Jumps Over The Wall” – ???) <\/p>\n
