But we had it at home this year, which was wonderful, except that I wished my son was here too.
I was at the Ayer Panas Morning Market getting a roast duck from my colleague whose family has been selling it for years.
Here is Jason busy serving his customers, and yup, that’s my roast duck there.
It was quite crowded.
The granny on the right was quite cute. When I arrived, Jason saw me and said hi. With so many people, I instinctively told him to take his time. But the granny indignantly said to me, in perfect English no less, “don’t ask him to take his time! I’ve been waiting here for too long already!” LOL Good thing she was good natured about it, and we chatted for a bit.
My other colleague Teresa then came as well to get her share of roast ducks.
Then it was time for our reunion dinner at home, with yü sang, pun choi, roast duck, vegetables and fruits. Simple but yummy and filling.
Happy and blessed Chinese New Year all!
