Yee Sang

A special Chinese New Year dish, Yee Sang is made from thin slices of raw fish, shredded vegetables, herbs, spices and oil. In Malaysian Chinese culture, Yee Sang is believed to bring good fortune and wealth in the upcoming year to those who toss and mix it while shouting "Low Hei," which symbolizes liveliness, prosperity and longevity. It is said that the higher you toss, the greater your fortunes. (Source: www.time.com)

I had my first taste of Yee Sang yesterday during a group lunch hosted by IBM at Saisaki Japanese Buffet. Looking at the pictures, all I can is
, as lame as it might sound...inilah semangat 1Malaysia!!! Wakakakaka~
