The Spring Festival is over and spring is coming! ​The first meal of the new year was at Lu Yu Restaurant in Conrad Beijing. There was a money tree in the lobby that brought fortune to everyone who saw it. The spring dishes were full of spring flavor and freshness. The unique fragrance and spicy aroma of Amaranthus, coupled with the nutty oil aroma of pine nuts, make people feel the beauty of spring. The eel is rolled in shrimp and paired with vinegar fish roe, giving it a rich taste that's fresh first and sour later. ​The shepherd's purse, fish maw and yellow croaker soup from eastern Fujian is dense, smooth and delicious. Freshly air-shipped river clams and bacon stewed with Yunnan sweet bamboo shoots. The delicious soup and crispy sweet bamboo shoots will make you marvel at the wonderful enjoyment the ingredients bring to your taste buds. The marbled short ribs are translucent in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a slightly sweet taste. Add a bowl of handmade knife fish wontons, and the delicacies from land will fill the sky, while the fairy food from feathers will enter your dreams. I recommend this flavor, which is unrivaled and praised by the whole world for its deliciousness.

For the last dinner before the New Year, I met with my sisters at Conrad Lu Yu Chinese Restaurant. The steaming hot and delicious meal healed the cold of winter! Chef Miao Fan's signature dishes are full of beautiful New Year's meanings: ✨ "Joyful" Double Winter Bamboo Braised Lamb Pot The fresh aroma of lamb is slowly released in the enamel pot. The lamb with skin is fat but not greasy, and the skin is tough and the meat is tender. The bean curd sheets have absorbed the soup and are soft and tasty, while the winter bamboo shoots are crispy and fragrant. This dish not only warms the stomach, but also brings a good omen for the New Year. ✨ "Golden Money" Homemade Tofu with Precious Mushrooms in Golden Soup The tender tofu is full of the freshness of the golden soup, and the rich taste of the precious mushrooms adds a layer of depth, implying a new year of wealth. ✨ "Sweet and Sweet" Sweet Osmanthus Bird's Nest Glutinous Rice Balls The soft and glutinous rice balls have a strong sweet osmanthus fragrance, and the bird's nest is smooth and delicate. Every bite is full of sweetness. The New Year starts with sweetness! There is also a classic dish that you must order every time you come, the boneless pork knuckle with soy sauce. The skin and tendons of the pork knuckle melt gently on the tip of your tongue, the sauce is rich and mellow, the pork knuckle is tender and juicy, and every bite has distinct layers, bringing you a full sense of satisfaction. ✨ Baked beef with shallots and basil The beef is tender and juicy, melting in your mouth.
