Chinese New Year Malaysian Supperclub London 30, 31 Jan 1 Feb

Celebrate Chinese New Year in London at Malaysian By May Supperclub

It’s been ages since we hosted a supperclub and probably the last time was when we were at Darjeeling Express, just before the Netflix show aired.

Our ever popular Malaysian Chinese New Year Supperclub is back in 2020! For one night only, we are hosting an intimate supperclub at an elegant private home in Marylebone.

On the menu is the most requested New Year Salad “Yee Sang” (or also called Loh Hei). This is the interactive salad where everyone has to get involved in tossing the salad while shouting out auspicious things. The meal will be 8 courses of Malaysian and auspicious Chinese dishes featuring prawns, fish and possible some rendang too.

Venue: A private home in Marylebone (nearest tubes Oxford Circus, Baker St, Regents Park)

Dates:

    • Thursday 30 Jan 2020
    • Friday 31 Jan  2020
    • Saturday 1 Feb 2020

Tickets: £45 and BYOB

Book Now by emailing us at bookings [at] malaysianbymay.com

Welcoming the Year of the Rat 2020 

Chinese New Year Malaysian Supperclub London

 

25 Jan is Burns night but coincidentally, it is also the first day of the Year of the Rat. In Malaysia, we celebrate Chinese New Year for 15 days. As per tradition, homes are cleaned before the new year (cleaning during the new year is bad luck) and new brightly coloured furnishing are bought. Everyone gets new clothes and shoes too. On the first 3 days, Malaysian will visit family and friends at “open houses” where there is free-flowing food and drink all day. Kids and unmarried youngsters are given Red packets filled with money for luck. It was always a great game to compare our Ang Pow stash at the end of the day. Inevitably, we will end up at a friend’s home where there is a mahjong or card game on.

Chap Goh Meh – the Hokkien New Year celebration

In the Hokkien communities in pockets around KL, Penang and other states, the 15th is the most important day. They call it Chap Goh Meh (literally, the 15th night). Besides celebrating the end of the New Year celebrations, it also has a romantic backdrop. In the olden days, this was the day that unwed girls were allowed out of their home. With their chaperones, they will dress up in all their finery and stroll through town. These girls will bring along mandarins to throw into the river in the hope of finding tru love. Today, this has been turned into a competition where boys in boats will compete to collect as many of the mandarins as possible. You can see this along the Esplanade in Penang.

About our Malaysian Supperclubs

At our supperclubs, we like to take everyone on a taste journey and introduce them to Malaysia’s varied fusion cuisine and flavours. From Nyonya food to familiar Malay curries like Beef Rendang to Indian Muslim Mamak dishes and Malaysian Street Food like laksa.

Who comes to our Malaysian supperclubs?

We have had guest as young as 1 month old to great grand mothers. We’ve had a guest fly in from Florida for the weekend and some regular guests who fly in from Germany. As attending a supperclub is one of the “Things to Do in London” we get visitors who found us online and turn up on a whim too.  We love to welcome Londoners who bring their friends to experience our Malaysian hospitality. You can come in a group or by yourself as we get a lot of single diners and our communal table settings are very friendly.

Testimonial: Here is what one our supperclubber guest had to say about our events:

“We had such an incredible time at May’s supper club – wonderful food in such a wonderful atmosphere. It really added to the evening having May explain the history of Malaysian cuisine so we knew why we were eating what we were eating. I cannot fault the evening, May and her team went above and beyond to produce some really exciting dishes – we didn’t want to leave! We will most definitely be returning soon. Thank you May. Dawn ”

Note: We are also available for private parties too, drop us an email for more details.

Testimonials: Here is what our supperclub guests had to say about our recent Supperclub:

I recently went to one of the Malaysian themed supper clubs by May and and a fantastic evening. May was a very friendly host who never ceased to provide us with the most delicious Malaysian dishes, which were so flavoursome and the quality of the food was outstanding. There was a lot of food offered so we were all pretty full but we had the option to help ourselves to as much or as little as we wanted and this way we were able to get a well rounded experience of Malaysian food as a whole. I have never tried Malaysian food but am very partial to Thai, Chinese, Indian and Japanese food, which was was why I was so keen to come to the Supper Club here. I can safely say I’ll be having Malaysian food again and the fact that here you get it through genuine home cooking, in such generous amounts makes it such good value for money, topped by the fact that you get to meet so many other interesting people. I would definitely recommend it for a truly enjoyable evening and added to this it won’t break the bank! Kat, London
