CNY Dinner at Bristol, UK

I'm hard pressed for time to blog right now so in the meantime, do take the liberty to browse through the pictures on facebook.

On the 6th of February, we organised a small chinese new year dinner amongst ourselves at Dynasty. A total of 40-ish people were expected to arrive on that night. We reached Dynasty at 7pm to set up the place in time for the dinner at 7.30pm which meant having a go at the antique karaoke machine while it was still empty!

The guests started streaming in at 7.30pm and the dinner was at full swing by 8pm. Tory Tan opened the dinner with a slew of CNY congs solo. Dinner was then served and after that the gathering started to liven up even more because it was now time for the fun and games! Hidden in a few angpow packets were 'lucky' cards which meant the receiver had to sing a song which was either a blessing or a curse depending on how you look at it. =)

Once that was through and done with, everyone jostling for the mike to sing/scream/holler/croak (take your pick) along to the music. Overall the gathering was a memorable event as it was the first CNY dinner away from my family.
