Steamboat

Chinese has the traditional eating habit during Chinese New Year, i.e. steamboat.

Majority of us having the steamboat during our reunion dinner once a year. The poor steamboat pot in my house was kept in the unseen corner, the only entertainment of it was playing with the dust in the dark and surfing spider-net...lol...yet, it was waiting. Waiting for the Chinese New Year Eve to show off its well polished body after the 'spring-cleaning' (da sao chu) before new year...

Sadly to say, the steamboat pot of ours, after serving loyalty for more than half a decade, is going to bid goodbye to us. It was spoilt...there was no longer the electric connection in it no matter how hard we tried...Let's look at him at the last glimpse:How to use it? It served as a big bowl...after the vege and prawns were cooked above the stove, they were put inside the dying pot...

Rest peace
