That place might be the best dim sum in Central Jersey; quality is not far off from the truly great places in Chinatown and Brooklyn.

 

Sunny Palace on 18 in East Brunswick isn't bad either, but i haven't been over there in a while.

Sunny palace can be uneven at times.But they are good people and when they are on their game it's better than Chinatown.

I'm a Lofan. My Asian friends refer to me as an egg -- white on the outside....

I'm only 1/4 Chinese but we always celebrated New Years,First wife HK Chinese and second 1/2 Chinese from Manila so the tradition ain't dying soon.......

But yeah, the red envelopes, I've heard of that... Between that and Bar Mitzvahs, I feel like Irish/English/German Catholics like me miss out on the cash thing...

 

Yeah, but you guys get good beer and forgiveness of your sins. I just get guilt.

You don't know many Catholics do you. The term "Catholic Guilt" goes back a LOOONNNGGGG time. Haha, every time I do anything I think MIGHT be somewhat mean to someone, I just feel awful.

 

Oh, and my girlfriend gave me a red envelope with a Starbucks card in it.

 

We aren't celebrating valentines day for a month, due to my being sick, and with the combination of Chinese New Year, and my Birthday all in a short span.

 

But yes, we had home-made chinese food, it was very good, and we wore red. She actually had a red shirt and gold pants. It was quite a fun day. Happy Year of the Snake!

I wouldn't mind retiring over there either.
