::Nigelrene Loft:: CNY MEAL #1

It's the eve of the eve of the eve and before we go on our rounds of reunion dinners, N&I had a mini one at our home.
Prep and cook time: 1.5 hours, and dinner was served at 9pm :x

The FIRST time using our rice cooker, FIRST time cooking rice. The result was too little rice! So we had a tablespoonful each

蒜(Suan4) with taukwa - Suan4 also means count in Mandarin. 
Symbolizes good wealth and fortune ahead for the new year - because can count lots of money!!!!

Steamed fish - Fish is 鱼 in Mandarin 
Symbolises 年年有余 (鱼)- Abundance and plentiful every year!

Happy Chinese New Year!!! :)
