Meeting family is part of Chinese New Year. Always has been and always will. That weekend I went down to London to meet May Ling, while Kien Hsin came down from Newcastle. After so long, the photos are up and I'm going to let them take over now (mostly). Although they are not placed chronologically, enjoy the snapshots!
May Ling made us homemade Yee Sang (鱼生 in Cantonese or "raw fish", a dish that, when mixed together symbolizes good luck for the coming year. It's normally topped with salmon and is incredibly sweet. People don't normally finish the whole thing. Or at least, normal people don't.
We had our delicious lunch in a Lebanese Restaurant on Saturday. There was a kebab bar where the chefs/bartenders slice off chunks of meat to prepare the food.

We had dinner at their family friend's place. And the Malaysian food was absolutely delicious.

I had a great time then. I'm looking forward to the next trip, hopefully. But I'll see how that goes.
