Jan 28: black dragon
Gung Hay Fat Choy. May prosperity be with you. Although Chinese New Year was on Jan 23, Din Tai Fung made and served dumplings to celebrate the Year of the Dragon. It was fascinating to watch them roll, stuff, wrap, and steam the dumplings.
Day 76: St. Patrick's Day Dinner
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Day 18: Fiesta Feast

Best part of all...delicious leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
