Show and Tell: Chinese New Year Dinner

Show and Tell
It's time again for Mel's Show and Tell.  Sunday was Valentine's Day, but it was also Chinese New Year.  This year we celebrate year of the Tiger.

My Babe and I, plus two other couples and their kids celebrated by going to a Chinese restaurant and ordering a set family dinner for 6.  Here are some pictures of the dishes we had.

Peking Roast Duck

Stir Fried Chinese Broccoli (front) and Salt & Pepper Squid (back)

Pork Chops in Peking Sauce

Steamed Whole Walleye with Ginger and Scallions

Crab with Ginger and Scallions

We were too busy eating, and forgot to take pictures of the pork and watercress soup, and also the tapioca dessert.  What a feast we had!  I hope this has whet your appetite for Chinese food.  Not go check out what the rest of the class is showing.

  7. That looks like quality Chinese food not cheap imitation stuff. That's hard to find in Nashville.
