Cousins Dinner

December 28, 2013 by ChrissyJee 2 Comments

Cousins DinnerBefore Christmas my brother, Matty, hosted for the second year, Cousins Dinner, at his apartment in Chinatown NY.  It’s a dinner all of the Wong cousins get together with their significant others and eat Chinese food and drink from my brother’s collection of expensive stuff.  This year we decided to order in because schedules were crazy and we would all be arriving at different times.  My Grouchy Husband and I flew in that afternoon from New Orleans so we were going to be late for the party.  The nice thing about ordering in is we can order our favorite things from our favorite places.

Cousins DinnerLobster, peking pork chop, chow fun, fish, duck, Chinese vegetables were from Yee Li.  The dumplings were from Green Bo.
