That looks delicious. I love Chinese food. I tried to write Happy New Year in Chinese but it only shows as question marks. So in English Gong Hey Fat Choy!

That's so cool you can write it in Chinese

Mylot may not support other languages and therefore they become question marks.

The food that your mother cooked looks delicious

I often eat Chinese food on New Year's Eve. Many of the Danish restaurants are closed on New Year's Eve, but the Chinese restaurants in my local area are open because the owners don't celebrate on the first of January like the Danes do.

Your mother is a chef. It looks very appetizing

. I heard this morning that the Chinese New Year was today, I should have guessed that there was also a New Year's Eve dinner in China. Here we celebrate Christmas Eve with our family, and New Year Eve with friends. I celebrate it with the same friends since many years now.

I am very sorry as it is difficult to translate these dishes into English. There are some seafood inside. And the fish and chicken are important for our Chinese New Year Eve meal.

Ok, looking at your feast makes me want to eat again. We usually have a few food during Chinese new years ever with all the round fruits if possible. But this time, we don't. Maybe next year will celebrate it with a bang. Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Sometimes it is just difficult to tell you in English. But I can tell you that chicken and fish are necessary for the Chinese New Year Eve.

"Gong Xi Fa Cai! The Philippines also celebrates Chinese new Year as respect to our large Chinese community and our Chinese heritage ( I have Chinese ancestors) so Feb. 8 here is a holiday and the kids do not have school tomorrow, Yehey!

Your mother's cooking looks good, wish i could taste some

Enjoy your holiday there. It is even nicer to feel warm for the Chinese New Year in your country since it is winter here and it is cold.
