Yesterday was Chinese New Year’s Eve. My family usually has New Year’s Eve dinner at home, but this year we went to the Sunflower Restaurant for this special dinner. Both my grandparents came from the coutryside to join us.
We sat in a room big enough for one table. We ordered some cold dishes first, and then our main dishes, desserts and drinks. For cold dishes, we ordered peanuts, smoked fish, cucumber, chicken and salad. Our main dishes are steak, pork chops, shrimp, roast duck, spinach, and mushroom soup. For dessert, we ordered rice pudding and dumplings. For drink, we ordered wine, juice and yoghurt. My grandparents preferred tea to any other drink.
We enjoyed our dinner very much. The fish was fresh, the soup delicious, the chicken wonderful, and the shrimp tasty.
During the dinner, we toasted(干杯) to our grandparents’ health and to my parents’ success in their work. Finally, my parents and grandparents raised their glasses in a toast. “Cheers!” they said, “To Xiaoming’s bright future!” We all had a wonderful New Year’s Eve dinner. After the dinner, we went home to watch the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV.
