Gong Xi Fa Cai!!

Posted on February 9, 2005June 30, 2005 by Surya

Happy Chinese New Year!

This day started like every other normal day..and it was the first time in 9 years that I was not gonna celebrate CNY, or so I thought. As it turns out, a few of us from office decided to go out to a Chinese Restaurant at Oststrasse, and celebrate CNY in our own way!And I absolutely loved the food – and I am the kinda person who doesnt place much importance in quality of food. If I got out and I want to have a good time, I rank food way below- after the quality of company, music and the general ambience. But this time, I really loved the food. Funny thing is, I never really realised how much I missed Chinese food. Never occurred to me I would miss Chinese food. Sure, I used to eat a lot of mee goreng and chicken rice and char kuay teow, but it was more out of convenience than anything else. Ah well, turns out I had developed a liking for them. So, i had a wonderful CNY in Duesseldorf afterall!
