Lunar New Year of the Snake - Gatherings


 William and Martin cut the two flourless chocolate cakes at Cherrybrook, north western Sydney.





Tasty and aromatic Indian styled curry from Nancee.




Beijing duck with skin sliced , ready for use on hoi sin sauce smeared wraps, garnished with shallots and cucumber cuts.




The festive yee sang mix (left of photo above) and the dried pork jerky (right of photo above), two dishes with auspicious meaning for the Lunar New Year.  Picture taken in Carlingford, NSW.  Yee sang has raw salmon, crunchy bits, fresh herbs, chili garnish and a light sour and sweet dressing.




One of the best quiche I have ever eaten, made by William of North Ryde, NSW.



Egg based noodles, stir fried with broccoli, to provide a lighter contrast to the richer foods on the table.


Cakes and more. Reunions and catch ups. Relaxing summer afternoon and easy chats. Photo credit to Zoe Yu.




Lai Mee's version of  the yee sang (above) and caught at late lunch (below).
