This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home, this little piggy went wee wee wee all the way to my plate! It was pigs galore at my friends Ed and Elsie’s wedding banquet at Sky Phoenix! Usually an 8 course banquet starts off with a suckling pig entree, but this is suckling pig WHOLE entree – served one per table!!! There were approx 16 tables at the wedding – hence 16 pigs were paraded by their waiters all the way to the front stage for all to applaud the spectacle and to commence salivating. What made it even more unique was the pigs’ eyes were filled with a light so that they glowed!!!
Each pig was pre-cut into squares of crackling, kinda like peking duck – but with pig! Each guest then got 2 squares, served atop a pancake with hoisin sauce and two slivers of pickled cucumber. A bit messy to eat, but it was fantastic.
Looking at the poor piggy – it was then taken to the kitchen to be chopped up and their stir fried for a second course. there was ssoooo much skin left I would have loved a second plate!! hehehe.
Another unique aspect of Sky Phoenix wedding reception banquets is the dessert. No sweet red bean soup here! They give you two mango pudding carp per table!! How unique! 
It’s so rare that chinese restaurants innovate so this was a very good surprise from the usual banquet fare
