Maxim's has been improving gradually on their food and service quality. Occasionally the group introduces certain specific Chinese cuisine. This summer season they highlighted a number of Hakka dishes. As I went thru' the menu, my first choice is this one "pickled yam" (photo 1) - a very long lost friend (that I only had it in my school time). When it was served on the table, the sesame on it was really original. This is the classic pickled and it's almost a forgotten recipe. Photo 3: salty chicken. 4: turnip, fish ball and smoked chicken casserole. 5: peppered pig's knuckle. 6: steamed rice with yam. 7: red date yellow wine sweet. 8: pumpkin crispy cake. All these are pretty good, especially the casserole, pig's knuckle and yellow wine sweet.

oh i c my beloved pig knuckle .. so yummy but so bad for health!
The bowl for the sliced yam looks nice too.
Missed the Salty Baked Chicken for the Hakka Cuisine.
I often tried to cut out the fat part when eating pig's knuckle. Quite technical. :)
SS, you can try to cut the yam in thin slice and place them evenly on a plate (you can put them in 3-4 layers). Then put some cooking oil and steam it for 10 minutes or place it in a rice cooker. Then put some light soy sauce. Good to go with rice.
Thank you SEA for the good suggestion.
I shall try this method one day.
I like yam a lot.
But I only know to steam or toast the yam or make a dessert soup.
