Let's talk about the food on the table. The selection of green onions and the more auspicious it is to put on the plate. Well, in my sister Hunan, the Chinese New Year banquet dishes, at least are meatballs.
In the early years, when my sister was young, I was looking forward to the meatballs for the Chinese New Year. At that time, the meat was rich and precious. It was only during the Chinese New Year that my family was willing to eat this way. Now the days are better, but meatballs are not popular anymore.
