If there’s one thing that unifies people, it’s food. In the Year of the Pig, we visit our beloved Chinese zodiacs to see how each of these signs fare during the Lunar New Year!

1. PIG

2019-01-29

Source: sayingimages

It’s time to hog all the glory this year, my friend! People close to you know you as the hardworking and faithful friend. Some might even say that you’re stylish as well, serving some of the best looks around town! It’s no wonder that you put a lot of thought into your day-to-day outfits.

This year, everything you desire will come rather easily to you (it is YOUR year, after all!), and luck and success will help your self-esteem greatly. Anticipate new friends this year as well, as many will be attracted by your beneficent and lucky aura. However, word of caution: not all these new friends come bearing good intentions to be aware of these individuals! Since the Year of the Dog bore a number of hardships for you, it’s only fair that you desire more than ever to seize happiness this year so enjoy the new wind and reap with delight the fruits of your labour and good fortune in 2019!

As a gourmet of the group, don’t be shy to splurge your newfound wealth on delectable spreads and the best eats in Singapore. From popular buffets to everyone’s favourite spots, dive in and enjoy yourself – you deserve it!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

  • Colours: Yellow, Grey, Brown – avoid Blue and Green
  • Numbers: 2, 5, 8
  • Food: Potatoes, Raspberries

2. RAT

As one of the most intelligent animals of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs, the choices that you make are pretty solid and you know it too – which can also mean that you get stubborn about what you like and what you don’t like.

For the Lunar New Year, be prepared to face a period of change and transition. This will cause a shift in your routine and you’ll feel anxious to restructure life, but don’t jump into huge projects just yet! It’s best to start planning and taking baby steps throughout the year, and use this as an opportunity to reflect.

It’s also recommended to embrace life a la Marie Kondo and clear out any unwanted junk to make room for optimism.  Things can get stressful at work as well, so make sure to take care of yourself and don’t skip meals!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

  • Colours: Blue, Gold, Green – avoid Yellow and Brown
  • Numbers: 2, 3
  • Food: Rosemary, Tomatoes, Potatoes

3. OX

Traditions are your foundation, loyal Ox, but you’ll need to be aware not to get carried away with your legendary tantrums! While 2019 starts off on a somewhat ambivalent note, things will start getting rather bumpy as the year progresses. But perseverance is your second nature, so you’ll still manage with resistance and determination throughout the year.

You will be tempted to seize opportunities to sow new seeds and strive to turn your projects into profitable undertakings. From experiencing a disappointing Year of the Dog, you may be cautious to pursue your ambitions at first but fret not: take comfort in knowing that your investments will ultimately be extremely beneficial towards the end of the year, while developing strategic partnerships along the way!

It’s about to be a fruitful year for you, dear Ox, so treat yourself to some fancy dining options to satisfy your cravings. From Modern European flavours to exquisite French cuisine, take your pick because the world is your oyster!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

    • Colours: Blue, Yellow, Green – avoid Red and Brown
    • Numbers: 1, 4
    • Food: Eggplant, Fig

4. TIGER

There’s an attractive air about you, charming Tiger, and you know you’re gifted with irresistible magnetism even if you don’t usually acknowledge it. You’re no stranger to having all the attention, which may explain why you need a job that allows you to express yourself as a leader.

However, 2019 will come as a challenge for you, so prepare for twists and turns that may put you in a rough spot. But with your courageous (and sometimes reckless) personality, these are challenges that you can easily overcome. Take heed to find solace from the comforts of your own home so that you can make a clear and objective assessment of what you have struggled with in the past and learn from them. It is also best to steer clear of going on solitary trips, and avoid interfering with events that don’t directly concern you!

That said, as long as you keep a good head on your shoulders, good surprises and beautiful gifts await towards mid-2019 – one might say even romantic! Planning on wooing that special someone? We’ve got you covered with these top romantic spots for your upcoming rendezvous!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

    • Colours: Green, Blue – avoid White
    • Numbers: 1, 3, 7

While others may see you as gentle and mild, they really shouldn’t underestimate your clever wit and strategic mind. Extremely diplomatic and independent yet grounded when it comes to matters of the home, you’re a dear companion that everyone would love to have on their side. Your mellow temperament may come off as lazy to some, but truth be told – you just like to take things easy!

In the Year of the Pig, family relations take centre stage where you’ll enjoy an abundance of luck and prosperity. Lady Luck is shining the spotlight on you this year with an increased peace of mind too which will bring happiness in other areas of your life. Keep your family closer this year, brave bunny, and shower them with the love they deserve!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

  • Colours: Red, Pink, Purple, Blue – avoid Brown, Grey, and White
  • Numbers: 3, 4, 9
  • Food: Apricot, Blackberries, Red Pepper

6. DRAGON

Nobody’s more of a stunner than you are, majestic Dragon! You’re flamboyant and love a good party, which makes it extremely easy for you to become the life of the party. People love you, and you’re pretty aware of that as well. Success comes easy for you, and you relish in the rewards you reap.

And much like your glamorous life, the Year of the Pig sees it fitting to bless your year with happiness, joy, and prosperity. Just continue living your amazing life, Dragon babies, and you’ll once again find opportunities that you have yet to achieve the year before. It’s also a resplendent period to leap into new adventures; take the plunge and try new things for a change. You’ll never know what you’ll discover along the way!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

    • Colours: Gold, Silver, and Grey – avoid White
    • Numbers: 1, 6, 7
  • Food: Cherries, Mushrooms

7. SNAKE

Out of all the zodiac signs, none can pull off a suave and cool demeanour like our dearest Snake. Elegant and refined characters, you are never one to doubt yourself and why should you, when you know you’re good at what you do? You are also endowed with a subtle and captivating beauty which helps you avoid money problems unlike most of the other Chinese zodiac signs.

This year brings a mixture of good joy and good humour with a dash of difficulty, however. Many disappointments abound, mostly caused by imperfections and delays in your daily life. It may test your nerves for once, but don’t lose your cool just yet! Stay persistent and double your efforts to maintain the balance in the Year of the Pig.

Need a little pick me up? Here are some goodies to help cheer you up, because everyone needs a little help every now and then.

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

  • Colours: Red, Yellow, and Black – avoid White, Gold, Brown
  • Numbers: 2, 6, 8
  • Food: Thyme, Lemon, Avocado

8. HORSE

As the most free-spirited Chinese zodiac, you are known for your proclivity for travel, our dearest equine friend. Culture and society are your passions, and you are extremely comfortable in settings that allow you to share what you know about different cultures. However, your tendency to shrink responsibilities due to your insatiable desire for freedom may prove to be a challenge when it comes to completing projects!

Nevertheless, the Year of the Pig beckons for stronger social ties and a clearer prioritisation towards activities that have long been neglected. Devote yourself to leisure, arts, and interior decoration to help relieve stress as well; rejuvenate at home with family and friends so that you can retain your strength to set up ambitious future projects.

This year seems to be marked by pleasure and gluttony, signalling for heightened social activities to strengthen the bond on the occasion of good meals with friends. Looking for your next spot to hang out at? Try these happening bars and tapas houses around town, and let the good times roll!

    • Numbers: 3, 4, 9
  • Food: Sweet Potato, White Onion

9. SHEEP

Everyone loves having a Sheep friend; with your intelligence, generosity and pragmatic outlook, having you around is always a charm. You are elegant and also refined, but have a tendency to be indecisive and will complain when you’re not in a good mood.

For someone like you, embrace highly stimulating activities such as surprises and parties because you never know when you’re going to find love in the right places! Even with a carefree attitude, you should still make an effort in maintaining a reasonable vigilance to preserve your well being. Be mindful of your strengths and weaknesses so that you can understand yourself better, applying it to everything that you do. You can also plan trips with your family and friends to cheer yourself up this year! Love, exciting discoveries, and new experiences are all aligned with your year, so seize the opportunity when you can!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

    • Colours: Greed, Red, Purple – avoid Gold, Brown, and Black
    • Numbers: 2, 8, 9
  • Food: White Radish, Poppy Seeds

10. MONKEY

There’s a reason why Curious George’s character is a monkey – your inquisitive mind and agile personality makes you a powerhouse for ideas, dearest Monkey. You are also exceptionally sharp at detecting events before they even happen, and that comes in handy!

Hardships were fought and won last year, and you continue your journey with a positive outlook. With the Year of the Pig, it’s time to take advantage of the new year and embark on new activities! Bulk up your contacts and start socialising; however, don’t neglect your loved ones as they need the attention too. Show that you care for them by filling up their tummies!

    • Numbers: 1, 7, 8
  • Food: Muskmelon, Red Pepper

11. ROOSTER

The Dragon may be the most flamboyant out of the zodiac signs but the regal Rooster also takes the cake as being just as magnificent, often eccentric and deeply conservative too. The feisty bird is also a born competitor, always geared up for a challenge and wanting to win no matter what! Your victories always come showered with attention, which you secretly adore.

Great healing is predicted for you in the Year of the Pig, dear Rooster. Take this opportunity to reset and recharge your batteries, especially from past wounds and little hiccups along the way. It is also predicted that unexpected problems from the past will return, so remind yourself to be careful and mindful as you go along in 2019.

Amidst the chaos and challenges, always remember to give yourself a break and relax, either over a good meal or a great view to unwind with – or both!

LUCKY THINGS FOR 2019

    • Colours: Gold, Brown, Yellow – avoid Red, Orange, and Purple
    • Numbers: 5, 7, 8
  • Food: Strawberries, Black Pepper, Mint

12. DOG

They say that dogs are a man’s best friends; indeed, with someone so sympathetic and intelligent, who wouldn’t want to befriend a loyal Dog? With roots grounded in home life, you are honest and faithful, treasuring safety and solitude above all else.

Last year was your year so in the Year of the Pig, it’s time for you to take a step back and relax. Take the necessary time to rejuvenate in the peace and serenity that your home offers, so that you can draw strength for business meetings that may come your way this year.

5 Fancy Places to Spend Your Angpao Loot

Now that you’ve raked in some money from the red packets, it’s time to treat yo’ self! Here are five (non-Chinese, don’t worry) fancy places to splash that cash.

bg_jan13_01

1. Gunther’s

Any French food connoisseur will tell you that the ambience of a restaurant can make or break it. Gunther’s does not disappoint, with an elegant interior featuring luxury furniture and Art-Noveau decor. The highlight here, however, is the delicious food. Reviewers have raved about the award-winning Cold Angel Hair Pasta, and juicy Carpaccio of Wagyu Beef, and we know someone who comes here specifically for their delicious butter and bread. Nestled in a quaint shophouse and located conveniently between Bugis and City Hall, there’s simply nothing to dislike about Gunther’s fancy French done right!

Find it at 36 Purvis Street #01-03 Singapore (188613)
Book a table at Gunther’s and earn 2X Chope-Dollars with code TASTYBLOG

 

Shoukouwa-Jyunsai

2. Shoukouwa Sushi Restaurant

Arguably the jewel in the crown of One Fullerton, this two Michelin star eatery is an intimate, 14-seater sushi spot serving up authentic Japanese gems. Think minimal wood seats paired with subtle taupe tones and sublime eats and you’ve got the right picture. The cooked dishes are excellent, but the true superstars of the menu are the raw seafood. With ingredients flown in from Tsukiji Market daily, if you’re craving some great Edomae sushi omakase or looking for elegant Japanese fare, this is the place for you!

Find it at 1 Fullerton Road #02-02A One Fullerton Singapore (049213)

3. The Tavern Restaurant

We’re not saying this is the fanciest place out there, but what it lacks in grandiose flourishes, it makes up for in taste. This simple shophouse may not seem like much at first glance, but don’t let the unassuming exterior and rustic interior (we’re talking European cabin-style decor here) fool you – the service and food are top-notch. They’ve got plenty of European delights from land and sea, including Angel Hair Pasta With Lobster, plump escargots, that tough-to-find Raclette, and more. We’re pretty partial to their selection of wagyu ourselves. Located on a cosy stretch of River Valley Road, and with quick, unobtrusive service, this place will surprise you in all the best ways.

Find it at 227 River Valley Road Singapore (238285)

4. Yhingthai Palace Restaurant

Lovers of jazzed up Thai food should put Yhingthai Palace on their lists. Just a couple of doors down from Gunther’s, this Bib Gourmand eatery serves up authentic and flavourful nosh in an ornate setting. The food here definitely comes with the signature ‘kick’ that Thai food fanatics are so fond of, and the sight of a table filled with these aromatic masterpieces will get your mouth watering for sure. For a wide array of Thai and Chinese dishes, this is place is ideal if you and your friends can’t settle on just one cuisine to have for dinner.

Find it at 36 Purvis Street #01-04 Singapore (188613)

Dish-28A

5. Yantra by Hermant Oberoi

Hailed as Singapore’s premier North Indian restaurant, this restaurant presents Indian fusion food in an extravagant manner. Helmed by Chef Hermant Oberoi, who has cooked for the likes of Barack Obama and Brad Pitt, the menu draws on culinary inspiration from all over India. With fresh spices flown in specially from the sub-continent, this is the place to go if you’re craving some curry after days of reunion dinners.

Find it at 163 Tanglin Road #01-28/33 Tanglin Mall Singapore (247933)

5 interesting facts you should know about Chinese New Year

It’s finally the eve of the Lunar New Year! While we prepare ourselves for the main event tomorrow, how many of these facts do we actually know about one of the world’s most celebrated festivities?

Cr: voanews.com

The longest-lasting fireworks display in the world

The Lunar New Year is celebrated by almost ¼ of the world’s population, with China being the largest population to date. It is thought that setting off fireworks at the stroke of midnight “scares off” evil spirits from the previous year and kick-starting the new one on a clean slate. The festival also sees the biggest annual fireworks usage globally; there isn’t a single hour in any other country that witnesses the lighting of fireworks at such a scale than in China – and they produce about 90% of the world’s fireworks!

It’s the only time to catch up with the family over lively and friendly banter

… well, sort of.

Those who are in their late twenties onwards and unattached would have prepared themselves for all the “when will you get married?” interrogations questions from family members. Taobao, China’s largest online shopping website, even offers ‘rent-a-boyfriend’ services for single women in China to bring men of their choice back home for the festivities to appease their older relatives!

Enjoying Lion & Dragon Dances

The Chinese lion and dragon are creatures that are associated with luck and prosperity. During Chinese New Year, Lion Dance troupes go from door-to-door around neighbourhoods performing dances to invite good fortune to people’s homes. In return, the residents will reward them with a red packet. The dance can range from a 3-minute performance to an elaborate 10-minute display of acrobatic feats depending on the amount awarded.

On the other hand, the Dragon Dance is usually a public performance since it requires a large number of Dragon dancers to hold up the dragon’s body (which can go up to over 200 feet long!) on poles, creating an illusion of a flying dragon in the air.

Adhering to Chinese New Year superstitions

Starting the new year on a good note is of utmost importance, which is why it comes as no surprise that there are a number of superstitions that the Chinese follow to ensure a smooth-sailing year ahead. The following are just a few prominent ones; how many of these do you actually follow?

  • Avoid taking medicine during the first couple of days of Chinese New Year so that your year ahead isn’t plagued with illnesses
  • Don’t sweep or take out garbage on the first day of Chinese New Year to avoid “sweeping away the luck and fortune” that come to your home
  • Avoiding eating porridge for breakfast as porridge is seen as a sign of being ‘poor’ (since porridge is a common food for the poor in China)
  • Don’t do the laundry on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year because these two days are celebrated as the birthday of the Water God (‘shui shen’ / 水神)
  • You shouldn’t wash your hair on the first day of Chinese New Year or else you’d be ‘washing your fortune away’

Eating foods that are considered lucky

What’s a festival without some good ol’ feast fest! In Chinese culture, even the food that we eat during Chinese New Year has to have some sort of symbolism to them. Among the most popular (and important ones) to have are Nian Gao 年糕 or Glutinous Rice Cakes (to signify that one will prosper and reap better rewards in the new year), lucky fruits such as mandarin oranges and pomelos (symbolising fullness and wealth), and fish (which represents more savings to come in the following year).

Giving and receiving red packets or ‘angpao’

This is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated reasons why children LOVE Chinese New Year. Inside these crimson envelopes are ‘lucky money’ given to children by their elders, usually from people who are married or even those who have started to earn their way, and they get to spend it however they like. #bestgiftsever

CNY Activities For Everyone (even if you aren’t Chinese)

If you aren’t Chinese or forego typical Chinese New Year visitations, the long weekend is a welcome respite from work, but can also be pretty boring. Most of the shops are closed, your friends are busy, and you’re stuck with no plans. But if you’re feeling the itch to get in on the festivities, here are some options for you to consider!

 

shutterstock_538273909Bai Nian At Friends’ Places

Chinese New Year is more than just red packets, it’s also a good time to catch up with friends and wish them good luck in the coming year. Heading over to their house (with their permission, of course, Chope does not support breaking & entering) to ‘bai nian’, aka receiving well wishes in Mandarin, is a good way to join in the celebrations. Bring two oranges and exchange them with your friend or the head of their household while saying simple Mandarin wishes such as Gong Xi Fa Cai – wishing you a prosperous year, and Wan Shi Ru Yi – may all your wishes come true. Then, settle in for delicious snacking and chit chats!

Lion-DanceCr: little day out

Watch Lion Dance Performances

The lion dance is an icon of Chinese New Year, and no to-do list would be complete without it.

There are plenty of lion dance performances complete with stunts and confetti tossing performed at heartland malls and community centres all across the island during Chinese New Year.
