Gung Hay Fat Choy!
Gung Hay Fat Choy! It means “Best wishes and Congratulations. Have a prosperous and good year” in Chinese. Time runs really fast. I could hardly imagine it is almost January. In Asia right now, it is already 31st. I missed the New Year’s Eve celebration in Cebu – people are busy preparing for “Media Noche” foods. Media Noche is a special dinner a night before New Year in the Philippines or simply means “midnight meal”. This is to celebrate the coming New Year. Oh boy, I missed those days. The Media Noche foods are ham, some native dessert, fruits and more. The Media Noche is not complete without round fruits for good fortune. And when midnight strikes, you’d hear firecrackers and see pretty fireworks. It is one of the ways to end the year and welcome the New Year.
