Is that a photo of your dinner?

If so, what all did you have? I'm curious of the cuisine.

Well I list here

1. The plate which has black thingy stuff is braised pork slices in soy sauce.
2. The fish is calledikan bawal , fried and put with tomato sauce and some cucumbers and onions.
3. The soup is chicken soup
4. The big pot with lid covered is mixed dish with some sea cucumbers and some vegetables, put with some sauce which I dun know but it's damn delicious.
5. The top dish is tofu

Eugh, that sounds to die for. I'd like to try that ikan bawal, myself. Looks savory. Are these traditional dishes for New Year?

Last time I celebrated the Chinese New Year I ate a raw pork dumpling...

Happy new year!

Y'know, I think the Chinese have the right idea, celebrating the New Year in February. January is the worst, most miserable month of the year, and nothing ever goes right in it. Things only start to improve when it's over and done with, so it's a great time to celebrate the new year~

How did that taste? I've heard a few people tell me that raw pork is not bad tasting at all

Also yes, happy new year to everyone! Year of the Monkey :D

That is quite the meal you had there, and I actually once tried tofu and I wasn't happy with the taste. That said, happy Chinese New Year to everyone, especially our members who were born in Year of the Monkey.

I can't remember the taste because I realised it was raw as soon as I swallowed it and I panicked and got on Google to see if I was going to die. I don't recall it tasting bad but I don't think it's very safe. :(

I rather cook it dun eat raw ones

Kanzler February 11th, 2016 9:34 AM

Most Chinese people would rate pork over beef but you have to cook it first. Can't make pork tartare or eat a rare porkchop.

Rengoku February 15th, 2016 11:59 AM

... Raw pork dumping? I am a Chinese and I've not heard of that?

We had peng cai for CNY eve:
