Happy Year of the Dragon!

Happy Chinese New Year! 

N and I had the pleasure of joining some friends this weekend in celebrating the Chinese New Year. This was a first for me and I had a great time. We made sure we stuck to some of the traditional Chinese customs such as eating traditional New Years Foods, wearing yellow and red and of course at midnight we lit the first incense of the year! Below you'll see some of the tasty treats we tried. I know the fish doesn't look that great, but it amazing!

Salted Fish with various dipping sauces

Buddha's Delight
Rice wonton rolls
Traditional LoMein
At midnight it is customary to eat from a selection of sweet treat; above you'll see our spread.



All in all we had a great night, it was good to spend time with some good friends.
