Food: Lunar New Year

January 28, 2017 in Food, Lifestyle

Happy Lunar New Year! It's the year of the rooster.

Each dish represents a well wish. Noodles for a long life. Dumplings for wealth because they look like gold ingots. Steamed fish for abundance because in Chinese, the word "fish" sounds like "abundance".

While it's all just symbolic, I do love each of these dishes in the photo so here's to a year of many more dumplings and noodles!

Beautiful interior + good food are a great combo. I liked the crispy prawns, duck salad, and the 3 layer dessert with pandan sticky rice. The staff was great too. We’ll have to go back with more people to try more of the menu 🤭

The kitchen in this Princess Margaret Lottery Home was a dream to photograph. From the colour palette to the minimalist, contemporary cabinets and island, to the finishes, I could find something to photograph everyday here 😍

The faucets throughout
A moment of appreciation for the exterior. With spring and summer being so short around here, now’s the time to take all those photos outdoors 🏡🌳☀️
