Happy Chinese New Year



Before our children were born we always celebrated Chinese New Year. I say 'celebrate', but what I mean (since we are not Chinese) is that we went out and enjoyed the festivities and ate lots of delicious Chinese food.

The area where we now live, is not as multi-cultural as I would like, but tonight I wanted to revisit this tradition. So we all went out to a local Chinese restaurant for dinner.



There was no lion dance, cymbals, drums or firecrackers, but we had a really yummy dinner. Prawn crackers, chicken and almonds, flaming peking pork spare ribs and special fried rice. The kids loved it.





And do you remember this from your childhood? Deep-fried ice-cream.
