January 2023 Challenge : Day #19 and #20 (Chinese New Year at The Starling)
The Chinese New Year decorations at The Starling are recycled repurposed from Christmas.
And then, the Fleuriste (florist) .....
... has been converted into....
The basikal burok was also repurposed.
But it looked much prettier for Christmas.
Well, there is a lot of snacks and goodies being sold at the Chinese New Year bazaar.
I would have bought those in the past to munch, munch, munch.
There are also loads of hampers.
I remember my auntie used to like going to a tea shop in Klang.
I am not into these type of high end varieties of tea. To me tea is tea. I know. I am a simpleton.
Today, I ate fried duck eggs and air fried fatty beef trimmings.
This time I added curry powder in addition to garlic and curry leaves. It was really good!
This was yesterday's breakfast - four deformed eggs (it was difficult to peel and I just hentam) and two leftover sausages. For dinner I had pork burgers and I didn't border to take a photo.
Today's dinner will be the same as lunch except that the eggs are hard boiled.
Let's see what I eat tomorrow. It will be something different.
I did not go around town to see the decorations but there are lanterns everywhere all over the town centre and of course, at every house here - Sibu is a predominantly Chinese town. Now I've to brace myself for the 3rd World War at midnight New Year's Eve. So many have not come back for years...and now they are home with a vengeance. The town centre is jam-packed!!!
ReplyDeleteI can imagine the traffic! I have to make sure to keep my cats inside this evening as I anticipate firecrackers going on full blast at midnight!
DeleteSame over here. Most malls recycled their Christmas decor to CNY theme. Just less than a month apart.
