i hate wedding dinner food..Originally posted by elindra:I know some people who come with 5 people and give $50 bucks only at a 5-star hotel
Wedding dinner is no longer compulsory
You do make money when you have it at a seafood resturant or everyone is generous.
Anyway my Ang Pow is based on the venue
next time must customized my own..black pepper crabs etc..makr urself happy when u're eating..
yaa so its hard to predict whether you'll make money or not so just get on with it and make merry..
some people make life difficult for themselves only..

The joke is that my husband speaks better mandarin then my relatives
My family is kinda mixed up I think. Technically speaking we are Peranakan, but we don't speak Malay or practise their customs though we do cook Peranakan food at home. It's a hybrid of Chinese/Peranakan Practices.
My parents learnt Mandarin along with my brother and I when we were studying -
