I specially created this Auspicious dish to serve on the 9th day of Chinese New Year. Wishing everyone 长长久久 Chang Chang Jiu Jiu, (久 Jiu which sound as 9 in Chinese) meaning everlasting goodness which all of us are blessed.

For this Golden Oyster Fritters Donburi, Auspicious ingredients are used for good luck that this dish will bring:

Black Moss 发菜: Sound in Chinese “Fa Cai” and in Cantonese “FATT CHOY” both sounds as the same as 发财 Fa Cai, meaning to brings Prosperity and get Rich.

Red Dates 红枣: In Chinese we say 吃红枣,通年没烦恼。”Chi Hong Zao, tong nian mei fan Nao” means Eat Red Dates, whole year no worries! (Direct translation)

Oyster 壕士: symbolises good events “好事” or ‘good market performance “好市” in Cantonese.
