    It’s great to hear it is diverse there. We had one of these Chinese Dragons at my work and it was amazing. Greg and Jumi need a dragon dance in a future episode. They celebrate the right way over there.
    Didn’t realize how big Chinese New Year was until the past couple of years and these type of RUclips videos. The world is back to normal with videos by both of you. What a fun celebration.

    For those who’s about to say something about shark’s fin just know that it’s artificial shark’s fin now in the majority of restaurants unless you pay A LOT then yes you can maybe get the real thing but it’s super rare. This is likely just one made of agar. Glad you guys enjoyed your time 😊

    Hi guys, it's been a long time, and thanks for visiting CNY events here; and joining the meal. If you come before CNY eve, maybe you get to see fireworks and firecrackers display around you there. In Kuching here, our midnight 1st day CNY is like warzone, fireworks and firecrackers sound everywhere for less than an hour.
