元宵节晚餐

Our dinner just now in celebration of 元宵节... Since it was the last day of Chinese New Year, we decided to have a special meal with more than usual food... These dishes even had auspicious names... =p


A bowl of 八宝豆腐汤 (Eight Treasures Tofu Soup) each. The eight treasures are shrimp, green beans, mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, imitation crabstick, cuttlefish balls, tofu and egg... =)


Honey Sesame Chicken Wings (甜蜜金凤), we loved the white sesame seeds on the chicken... =)


Golden Garlic Prawns (黄金笑虾), which was great!! =)


Broccoli with Stewed Mushrooms (花开富贵), ended up with too little sauce but was still nice...


We spent quite long preparing and cooking all the dishes and were glad that all turned out rather nice! At least the effort was worth it. =p Dessert was black sesame tang yuan. However, we were really full after dinner and could only have them much later... Thought that these small tang yuan looked cute but after taking a bite we felt that there was too much glutinous flour and too little black sesame... =(
