neutral  Scott Li: sorry, as a Chinese, I never heard of this dish in Chinese menu. Hay or Hai may refers to Fish in Fukien dialect but defintely not a fish. Can anyone tells its name in Chinese ?

  -> This is Balinese, not Chinese. The name is used in Bali - they speak their own very cute language. I do not think this name is Chinese at all - the DISH originates from Chinese crab omelette though- see above.
