Chinese New Year Reunion Gatherings 2013

We have our big reunion gathering a week earlier at my mother-in-law place with the immediate relatives.

Yu Sheng and each family brought some food for the lunch gathering.

Eating the Yu Sheng after the 'loh hey' .....

 

A group family photo to wrap up the lunch gathering...

 

 

On the actual eve of Chinese New Year we, our own family of 3, went for a more formal reunion dinner on our own. We booked a table at our favourite Chinese restaurant for dinner at 8pm.

 

The restaurant was fully booked , as expected, and it was very well organised and food was served timely.

 

 



It was a 5 course dinner and the food was good.
