It's a Chinese New Year's tradition to "Lou Sang" on the eighth day of the New Year in the Lunar Calendar. It happened to be yesterday. Lou Sang means to mixed up all the Yee Sang ingredients and while mixing with the chopstick, the higher you carry the ingredients the better luck you have ahead for you. The ingredients for the Yee Sang is originally the Teochew-style raw fish salad, shredded vegetables and mixture of sauce. [citation : wikipedia] However, as the Earth evolved from Green Forest to Titanium buildings, the Yee Sang ingredients also evolved from normal shredded fish to fresh salmon sashimi. You can easily get one full set of Yee Sang from Sakae Sushi or Sushi King. If you are a more practical person, you can always get the vegetables from the morning market and cut them yourself.
As for her, she took the trouble to buy the Yee Sang ingredients from Tesco on the night before Chinese New Year for her reunion dinner. However, since there were very little people, her mum suggested to her to Lou Sang in her relatives house. Ended up, they started steamboat and forgot all about it. Lucky for her, exactly on the eighth day of CNY, she was invited to her employee's [aka BIG BOSS] place to celebrate CNY. And so she went and lucky for her she did get to Lou Sang this year after all. She was very lucky last year too.She got to Lou Sang with her colleague in Switch [an apple retail shop in Penang].
So there she goes LOU LOU LOU~
How did you spend yours?
She says:
