Seafood Banquet anyone?

When Chinese people say they're going to celebrate with a meal, what we really mean is a banquet, a 14 course banquet across several large round tables with the turning table in the middle.

I thought I'd say it with less words for this post. Enjoy. I certainly did.

1: the cold seafood platter - crispy pork, chicken, octopus, seaweed

2: Bird's nest (edible of course), chinese veg & squid

2 & 3: 2 different types of cooked scallops 

4: 'Shark fin soup' (crab substitute of course)

5: LOBSTER!

6 & 7: Sea mushrooms and veg & Chicken

8: the fish course

 9 & 10 were the noodles and rice courses but you've seen them all before.

11: CAKE!

12: There's always the fruit course 

13: Mango and coconut jelly cubes

14: Chinese buns with egg yolk filling

THE END. Phew.
