What did you have? Got pics of the spread? Would love to know what you ate? What you family's specialty is...
It's been a decade or so since I last had a reunion dinner with my parents, etc. All I have are fond memories of Mum's wonderful cooking. Hmmm....Since I'm always far from Sg with no immediate family in sight, my family's celebration has always been a small one, so it's up to me to keep the tradition alive.
Show pics if you have any?
Happy New Year!

Sounds very much like my family's usual steamboat, except that we don't have Yam. We have Tung Oh (some vegetable) and... can't remember liao... it's been too long.

It was a simple, quiet dinner with the following ingredients:
a) bird egg
b) needle mushroom
c) noodles
d) veggie
e) squid
f) abalone
g) lean meat
h) prawns
Come to think of it, we should promote reunion dinner to other races like the malays and ang mohs...

The Americans have their Thanksgiving. And Caucasians in general have Christmas. Malays have their Hari Raya. Those are all versions of the Reunion Dinner because that's when family gather around to share a meal.
