It's Chinese New Year!! Everyone's favourite time of the year, also mine of course! So for this year, CNY falls on the 10th of February. So on the 9th will be reunion dinner with the fam. Reunion dinner or 团圆饭 is always held on the eve of Chinese New Year where all members of the family gather to have a meal together.
So as for my family, we always have our reunion meal in the afternoon and at night. We'll have lunch with my dad's side and at night will be with my mum's side. So I'll start off with my reunion lunch. Every year, my grandma and mum will cook for reunion dinner instead of going out to eat, it's like a family tradition. This year, there's something special for our meal which was Pun Choi, also known as Big Bowl Feast. My mum's first time trying to cook this dish and looks like she succeeded.
Our homecooked Pun choy. Abalone, Prawn, Button Mushrooms, Pork, Chicken topped with Abalone Sauce. Super yums.
Meatballs
Steamed Fish
Fried Prawn
Roast Duck
Pork Soup (Dunno the name of this)
Iced Longan Drink for Dessert
Didn't manage to snap a picture of our family because everyone was already feasting when the food was served. So just pictures of food. And for the night's dinner, also food pictures only. For reunion dinner, we had a potluck-ish dinner. My mum cooked the mushroom chicken, pun choi and also bought roast duck. Spicy dishes for the night!
