Chinese New Year is only less than 24 hours to go and everyone is busy with many final touch up and last minute cleaning. The most important part of the year is always the reunion dinner. No Chinese family would wish to miss one of the member for this important event. It represents the unity of the family. Gathering of the far (if there is) and near and definitely the reunion of the all family members once a year on this very table.
Knowing the importance of such meaningful event, Pullman Miri Waterfront had always tried to make the night a memorable one. This year, the year of Boar, they are lifting the mood to a very classical, all red decoration that all Chinese will definitely enjoyed dining in.
Yee Sang tossing is a Malaysian culture where all diners will gather and start tossing for good wishes. It is always a kick start for every dinner that hoping the upcoming year will be great, good and smoothly run for everyone. It is believed that the higher you toss the better it gets. So ladies and gentlemen, stretch your arm out.
A few close up shot during our gathering and this is definitely what you will also get when dining in during the reunion dinner night which is on 3rd February 2019 (Monday) - tomorrow is the day thou. 😎
Appetizers & Dessert Corner
年糕(nian gao) or better known as Kuih Bakul is one of the must have in all Chinese family. It has the symbolism of raising oneself in each coming year as the Chinese word "gao" means tall.
Mandarin orange is also the must have CNY food and weirdly it is also only available during this festive season.
Sweet Tooth Corner
There's variety spread that you would definitely indulge in. Pullman Miri Waterfront not only invited their business partners, they also invited children from Tudan Methodist Home to join the special occasion. 红包 (hong bao) or also known as ang pow is given to these kids which is a small token from the hotel.
Put your hands together for this beautiful team and people who work restlessly to get everything in place for this Chinese New Year.
Dear beloved friends, please be home for this Chinese New Year. Be grateful with people you still get to see and spare time with. Some may not even get to reunite due to certain circumstances. I do not mean to drag the mood down BUT just reminding that loved ones is always worth making time for. Wait no more and book your seats if you haven't did. Below are the details for your reference.
