hi guys I'm Jenny, that's Jason.
Today on Goose Nuggets, we're going to Value Village
no, just kidding.
all right let's redo that
hi guys I'm Jenny that's Jason.
today on Goose Nuggets it's all about Chinese New Year
Chinese New year is one of the biggest holiday for us Asians.
it's kind of like Christmas.
It is a huge holiday where people come together from far away
and gather and have dinner and have a feast
on this episode we are going to show you guys the eating out restaurant version
VS home-cooked meals
for the restaurant eating out part we picked Wing Kee restaurant (新荣记)
this is an old-school Chinese restaurant. the interior it's not great but the food is authentic and good
and what's their specialty food here Jason?
Their lamb hotpot is quite good hotpot
oh really lamb hotpot! I've come here and never order that before so I'm excited to have
that let's go
so Chinese new year, every year is different. it doesn't have a specific date.
it's like the Lunar New Year so for this year 2019, it's February 5th. and the year of the pig
Chinese New Year in full swing everybody's so busy bustling just chatting
you have to order a full table of food. look at that. look at that
mostly eating. love these. intestines yeah
let me get some good old classic ordered so much, double layers
let me get some good old classic classic ma po tofu （麻婆豆腐）
what is this what is this
like a little fried fish, litter mermaids
this is a good place.
Although it doesn't taste homemade home cooked, it's a great restaurant, very authentic, very flavourful
it's so busy in here oh my gosh
this is why I like about communal tables that everybody share
and you get to eat all different sorts different kind of food
(the owner is serving us food) yeah and the owner is serving us
I think it's because we have too many dishes
they're trying to clear out the plates. make more room. I think we have more food coming
That lamb pot is huge!
and it needs some time to be cooked the fire underneath it is really working its way
(There are a lot of cabbage underneath with some bean curd.)
(supposedly you can drink the soup too)
