Kelly and I went to our friend Baker’s wedding on saturday. The wedding ceremony itself was fairly standard, but the reception/dinner wasn’t. Baker’s wife Cindy is Chinese, and the reception was done entirely in a chinese style. There was a 10 course meal, dancing lions, all kinds of cool stuff!
Here’s our ten course meal:
1) Appetizers, including BBQ pork and Jellyfish
2) Shark Fin Soup
3) Broccoli & Scallops
4) Honey Walnut Prawns
5)
6) Baby Bok choi and mushrooms
7) Sea Bass
8) Peking Duck and Dumplings (Mu-Shu Duck?)
9) Fried Rice
10) Cake
I’m having difficulty remembering one of the courses. It’ll come to me in time. We were lucky enough to sit with 3 great people, Jason, Felix and Pricsilla, who were gracious enough to let us know what we were eating and what the protocol was, so we didn’t look like foolish Gwai lo!.
