Keong Hee Huat Chye(Hokkien)
Xi Fa Cai (Mandarin)
The year of the OX kicked off today and New Year celebrations last for 15 days. For Hokkiens the 15th Night (Chap Goh Mei) – the last night of the New Year festivities – is celebrated in a big way since it coincides with the first full moon of the New Year.
Our modest dinner:
Steamed Red Snapper; Garlic Shrimps; Baby Bok Choy and "Joo Hoo Char".
