Family Gathering Dinner

On December 26 we went to a Chinese restaurant in Montreal. The meal was huge and I think everyone had a great night. It started around 5 pm, where Daddy drove Kalen, Mommy, some other uncles, other aunts, and I. The drive was long, about 45 min just to get to the restaurant. I even manage to take a nap on our way there. The reason it took so long was due to the freezing rain and slippery ice on the road.

When we finally arrived the restaurant, I went to go sit in a seat. After a few more minutes everyone arrived. I ended up sitting at the table in the corner. Kalen, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle Duge, Aunty Linda, Aunty Julie, and Uncle Joy also sat at the table. At the beginning of the meal, I had a lot of pop. For example Coka and Sprite so I didn’t eat as much amazing food as I wanted. Half way through Daddy made a speech thanking the elderly. Apparently, this meal was Daddy’s generation showing thanks to my grandparent’s generation. Usually, my grandparent’s generation pays. This time my dad’s generation pays. We also had this small bun with some kinda paste in it because it was someone’s birthday.

Overall, I enjoyed the meal and it was a lot of fun going out to eat with the family.

  1. Jason, an excellent recount of our Appreciation Dinner on Dec. 26th. Just a reminder that Uncle Doug (not Duge) is the correct spelling. Also it was Auntie Loula’s birthday that we celebrated. The paste within the steamed bun is the sweet lotus paste, the same type of filling that you find in moon cakes.
