2024 Chinese New Year!

What is Chinese New Year about?

The New Year celebration is centred around removing the bad and the old and welcoming the new and the good. An annual 15-day festival in China and Chinese communities around the world that begins with the new moon that occurs sometime between January 21 and February 20. It's a time to worship ancestors, exorcise evil spirits and pray for good harvest.

2024 is the year of the Dragon based on the Chinese zodiac. It's the year of the wood dragon starting from Feb.10, 2024, to Jan.28, 2025. Dragon, also called Loong, is the fifth in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac signs. The Years of the Dragon include 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024...

What is the personality of a Dragon?

Most people born in the Year of the Dragon are full of fighting spirit and strength. They are charismatic, attracting a lot of followers and their talented leadership skills naturally convince every subordinate. The Dragons may look indifferent, however, they actually are chivalrous and always think of others.

This year we had a full celebration at Mr Chan’s celebrating the lives of the Dragon, with special dishes that symbolise, prosperity, love, happiness, strength and unity, including; Giant Jumbo King Prawns, Golden Cups, Lunar Crispy Dumplings, Rays Special Steak bites and more…
