Christmas Dinner

Categories

I don't know where it came from, Jews going out for Chinese on Christmas. I am not sure I ever have. This year Eve's father came over and she made a delicious dinner. But we did go out for Chinese last night, a new upscale Asian restaurant in Rye.  It was quite good.

 

We had ordered some vegetable fried rice, and for some reason that I  could not understand they also gave us another portion of lobster fried rice. That was a lot of rice. With chopsticks, that took a long time to eat and I swapped out the chopsticks for the fork.

 

Not sure what it is about using chopsticks when people go out for Chinese or Japanese. I wonder if they use  forks and knives when they eat American food in their own country.

 

Merry Christmas.

Chop sticks are for showing off. Forks and spoons are for shoveling.

I observed in Chinatown (Manhattan) and Flushing Chinatown the use of chopsticks to funnel rice into users' mouths.
The Chinese food thing I think results a much from those restaurants being open. Obviously in banes predominated by various configurations of traditional and Haredi Jews, kosher restaurants of all kinds open on Xmas.

We have a new tradition - started this year - Bagel Boss for brunch and Japanese for dinner :) Happy New Year!
