Gong Xi Fa Chai!

February 18, 2007 was the Chinese New Year of the pig. Since CNY eve was a Saturday, the girls and I decided to use our cooking skills to make CNY eve dinner at home (well Lisa's and Friend A Sook's home). There were 5 of us: Lee Ling, Friend A Sook, Lisa, Anton and one of Lee Ling's friend. In the end we had a veritable feast:

• Baked fish (Lisa)
• Char siew (Me)
• Black bean ribs (Me)
• Roast duck (Sook - courtesy of Canton Chinese Restaurant)
• Chai Choi (Lee Ling)
• Sweet and sour prawns (Lee Ling and Me)
• Green vegetables (Lee Ling)
• Rice
• Sago pudding with gula melaka (Lisa)
• Lychees (Lisa)
• Fruits (Lee Ling's friend)

It was a great plan because trying to get a table for a CNY Eve meal in Chinatown would not be impossible but everywhere would have been crowded!!!
