Chu 1 - Old Town White Coffee @ Rapid Mall

It's the first day of Chinese New Year. Woke up early in the morning, wishing parents a very Happy Chinese New Year.. Gong Xi Fa Cai.. =D The most important is having a good health and a prosperous year ahead.. ^_* Getting an ang pow from daddy and mommy.. =D


According to the elderly, red packets a.k.a ang pows are typically given by the married to the unmarried especially to the children. The red color of the envelope is symbolizes good luck and is supposed to ward off the evil spirits. The act of requesting for ang pows is normally called 討紅包, 要利是 (Mandarin); 逗利是 (Cantonese). The amount of money contained in the envelope usually ends with an even digit, as for the odd-numbered money gifts are traditionally associated with funeral. The money should not given in fours, or the number four should not appear in the amount, such as in 40. 44 and 444, as the pronunciation of the word "four" resembles that of the word of "death" and thus signifies bad luck for many Chinese. (Information from Wikipedia)

Ok, no more grandmother stories about the ang pows. Back to my origin post. =D hehe

After getting ang pow from parents, get ready to go for breakfast. Hmm, really cracking head thinking of what to eat. Every where is jammed and packed with people. Once a year, everyone is back to hometown to have a big gathering/ reunion with family and friends. Finally we made a decision and came to here, Oldtown White Coffee, which is located at Rapid Mall Seri Intan, opposite of McDonald's.
