CNY!!!

Hows everybody holding up?

Happy chinese new year to you! i hope yo u had a great one reuniting with your family and friends. this is a good time to ask for forgiveness and start fresh because its a "NEW" year.

visiting, meeting , catching up with cousins who flew back, eating, going to oversea restaurant people/friends checking in places to eat with family.

its nice to see people getting together in one. holiday for one week!! but not for me, i got to study for mid terms =(

So im guessing half of you or most of you did "lou sang" or you can call it yee sang? Have you ever know whats the history of yee sang? or are we just typical Malaysians who follows blindly without knowing?

First day of cny he bought me this, was suupose to have 2 scoops but they were closing soon so 3 scoops...

HERE IT IS

The Legend Behind Yee Sang

According to Chinese legend, the goddess Nu Wa spent six days creating animals out of mud, while on the seventh she created humanity.

Ren Ri, the Day of Humankind, is correspondingly celebrated on the seventh day of Chinese New Year. To celebrate this day, the Chinese enjoy a special dish comprising seven symbolic delicacies which we know as Yee Sang.

When Yee Sang is eaten, the ritual is to toss the mixed ingredients high in the air with a shout of "Loh Hey" which literally means to ‘move upwards’. It is symbolic of the wish for our fortunes to rise and expand during the forthcoming year.

Yee Sang, A Symbol of Prosperity

In celebration of the Chinese lunar calendar’s most important festival, Chinese New Year, numerous dishes from different origins are savoured. Yee Sang is one such traditional dish. It is symbolic of good luck, prosperity, health and all things auspicious.

Yee Sang comprises thin slices of pickled vegetables and other ingredients which are mixed together thoroughly when the dish is eaten. The taste of the dish is enhanced by its special sauce which imparts a distinctive flavour.

The popular custom is for all round the dining table to toss the ingredients high in the air with joyful exclamations of "Loh Hey" (toss high). The significance of the tossing is to wish for abundant luck and happiness for all. The enjoyment of Yee Sang during Chinese New Year is an age-old custom steeped in ancient tradition and culture.

Last time, our tradition of yee sang ingredients its normal but now the world is getting more and more advance adding salmon sashimi! or beef? haha.
