| | Chinese New Year mood has faded | | 2008-02-18 09:39:52 | | The mood and celebration of Chinese New Year is fading fast. In fact, to most people, Chinese New Years celebration ends when it’s time to leave their hometown, drive back to the big city and their jobs.

| | Chinese New Year Dinners | | 2008-02-17 12:53:54 | | 17 February 2008Today the Istana was open to all Grassroots leaders for a Chinese New Year Garden Party in conjunction with Chinese New Year (of course). Faizah's Father gave us a ride to the Istana, since we both live in the same block.Traffic police lined the road leading to the Istana. We were fortunate to be allowed to drop off there since it's double-zigzagged yellow lined road. We came early as we had a RC dinner later in the evening. However, we were not allowed entry since our MPs wouldn't be here yet. Anyhow, we went to Plaza Singapura for a cup of Mocha Frappucino at Starbucks.We chatted for a while with most part talking about her life teaching in Bedok North Secondary School. When time came, we queued up at Istana for security clearance and then boarded the shuttle bus.A symphonic Chinese Orchestra was performing for the crowd.

I apologize to everyone for having to endure the picture of Bill Gates on the home page for so long, and I guess I deserve this comment…or maybe not. Ahem…
For those of you who celebrate it, Happy Chinese New Year, the year of the rat!

| | Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner at Mom's | | 2008-02-06 21:32:00 | | Everything my mom makes is always amazing. So many people have begged my mom to open a restaurant but she never will. It remains a special treat for loved ones only. This year, she decided on some non-traditional dishes since we'll be having a big banquet style meal tonight as well.First, Fried Butterfish with Pickled RadishesThis cold dish of Surf Clam and Celery is light and refreshing. The hint of sesame oil is a nice accent.We saw this innovative dish last time we went to New Yeah Shanghai and my mom has a knack for taking restaurant creations and improving them. These Pork and Sticky Rice Wrapped in Bamboo Leaves looked better and tasted better.Yum, ox tail stewed in a rich tomato sauce. The picture is a bit smoky since I took the picture right as my mom plated it.These Fried Shrimp Balls were a hit. The coating is clever little cubes of bread making a light and crunchy outside.My mom makes an awesome Fish Head Soup. She uses a type of tofu, translated as frozen tofu.

| Chinese New Year Eve 2008 | | 2008-02-06 11:43:19 | | Heralding towards a new year on the lunar calendar...Early morning climbed out of bed and instantly felt the atmosphere refreshing. After reading some course materials, I left for school. The usual crowds and buzz were not in NUS today. Had a very easy time (as well as good spot) to park the vehicle.A lecture must be worth attending to warrant my travelling from the East to the West on a Chinese New Year's Eve. And indeed it is. Prof Hussin Mutalib never failed to entertain the students with his 1)unique poshy accent; 2)self-glorifying professions; 3)lame rhetorics. For someone who had taught the subject for more than 2 decades, he must have some substance. Singapore politics, while it already is intriguing, has become even more exciting and interesting.I was glad to receive an invitation card to the Istana for Chinese New Year Dinner. The card was personally signed by PM Lee Hsien Loong, SM Goh Chok Tong, MM Lee Kuan Yew and other Cabinet Ministers. Wonderful.Had a little gathering wi | | By: My Encounters, My Life | | |
| | Celebrate Chinese New Year! | | 2008-02-05 09:06:00 | | Chinese New Year celebrations start tomorrow night and lasts for days. Even if you're not Chinese, you can celebrate as well. Here's a brief outline. Pick and choose the things you'd like to do and modify as you wish. Hey, I celebrate Break Fast but I don't fast.1. New Year's Eve dinner is Wed night this year, on February 6th. Everyone scrambles home to be with their family, usually going to wherever their elders are. So, if you can, go have dinner with your parents and/or grandparents.2. The New Year's Eve meal is supposed to include a wide variety of dishes: a chicken, a duck, a fish, a meat (beef, lamb, or pork), and as many of each as possible. You can order in or make reservations at a restaurant to make things easy.3. Right before midnight on Wed night, eat dumplings. Dumplings are similar in shape to an old form of Chinese money or gold ingots called Yuan Bao and so dumplings are symbolic. You can also fold Yuan Bao shapes with paper.4. Make sure you have plenty of left-over fis | | By: FoodMayhem | | |

| | A word about Chinese New Year | | 2007-12-31 21:30:08 | | Chinese New Year or Spring Festival, or the Lunar New Year, is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is an important holiday in East Asia. The festival proper begins on the first day of the first lunar month in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called the Lantern festival.Chinese New Year's Eve is known as. Chu literally means "change" and xi means "Eve".Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had a strong influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbours, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction.These include Koreans, Mongolians, Nepalese, Bhutanese, Vietnamese, and formerly the Japanese before 1873. In Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and other countries with significant Chinese populations, Chinese New Year is also celebrated, largely by overseas Chinese, but it is not part of the traditional culture of these countries. In Thailand, for example, the true New Year celebration of the ethnic Thais is Songkran, which is totally different and is celebrated in April.Credits: Wikipedia
