Traditional Chinese New Year Shopping

Yesterday was all about traditional Chinese New Year (CNY) shopping with the in-laws. We made the annual trip down to Hong Kong Street for dried goods to be used / given away. This usually quiet street will be full of activity during these few weeks before CNY.

The purchase list this year included the usual stuff like Dried Mushrooms, Dried Scallops, Dried Cuttlefish, Red Dates, Dried Oysters, Waxed Meats and Chinese Liver Sausages.

Even the local pigeons had a field day with pickings from loading and unloading of the goods. General_
