Happy happy new year! 新年大快樂！

大紅燈籠高高掛

（媽媽的新玩意兒）

大家昨天開工，
我今天真正開始休息，
大掃除。

因為有事情忘了做，
這兩天還是得進公司，
都怪我的大豬頭。

祝大家，
新年快樂，
身體健康，
一切龍龍厚！

我要繼續去當阿桑了。

家裡的舞獅

（也是媽媽今年的新玩意兒）

城中區

媽媽的地盤

過年少不了過度的吃吃喝喝，

這是有半世紀歷史的「添財」台式日本料理店

黑輪

（還是習慣媽媽做的）

肥美的生蠔

這個印象深刻，好吃！

前菜吃完後面就忘了拍了。

心理算一算，

以當天的料理，

食材，

和服務品質，

一人最多最多一千二吧。

沒想到五個人吃了快一萬。

（（驚））

繼高玉，這是一個月內讓我（（驚））的第二家餐廳。

結果當天晚上和爸媽回到淡水吃「鮮流坊」

感覺一人大概吃了兩千，

但三人總共三千九。

還是覺得鮮流坊物超所值，

老闆阿迪的態度也令人讚嘆。

Japanese restaurant Xianliufang really has great food and service for the price.

Two thumbs up.

Here are some pictures from dinner.

And here's someone fashionable enough to stop traffic...

喜氣洋洋

Stop! and look at the fashionista.

Here's Mom on TV over the holidays. She threatens me to take her pictures off my blog and Facebook but always happily accepts TV news interviews. Why? I'm not taking this off.

And where was I? On assignment at the zoo, in the rain. Not complaining, just giving some contrast to the picture. :D

Shing-Peng-Lai 興蓬萊 really is a tasty restaurant. My favorite is the fried taro ball 酥炸芋頭丸. But it's usually so packed that there are people practically spilling out the windows. I highly suggest bringing along more family members and friends, and get a private room when going. We never do, and I always end up wishing that we did. Maybe we never get a room because there are always VIP's like former President Lee Teng-hui in there. This is one of his favorite restaurants, for good reason.
