Winter Solstice (aka "Gau Dong" in Chinese)

 we started the day off by going to dim sum!! yay!!!! finally as a huge group!!! Julian... LOOKIN' GOOD!! ;)








school girls' uniforms always amaze me....theyre all different! i shouldve started a photo collection!

 we bought little crabs!!! :)


 we decided to cook these because if we just boiled them, they wouldve been a waste because all the taste wouldve just boiled away :(

 in the back there you can see the veggies on a smaller table!!!

 This little "fish ball" WAS SOO GOOD!! and we called it the onion one because it is shaped like a pearl onion almost...inside was like.. CAVIAR.. it was DELICIOUS!! the ones in the back .. forgot to take a better pic (was too busy eating) but are filled with CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!!! !@!#$!@$@! SOO GOOD!!!! it's no WONDER so many people hot pot in HK!!

This one inside was filled with Sea Urchin1!! ALSO AMAZING.. you know which ones i'm probably talking about..the orange ones.. we called them mints because they look like mints LOL! SOO COOLL!!! i wish canada had these kinda of fish balls..theyre soo delicous..

 Edwin and Thao joined us!! we had enoguh food for like 10 people... sooo full but soo good!!


YUMM!! best winter solstice celebration ever!! (only because it's the only winter solstice celebration i've ever had!)
