This year is the year of the Dragon, a very auspicious year in the Chinese calendar. New Year starts on 23 January and the celebrations continue for the next 15 days. We’re celebrating tomorrow evening with a Chinese Banquet and if you’d like some ideas then check out some of my recipes here or listen again to my Feeding the Family show 
on BBC Oxford today when my fabulous guests Kwong Lin from Noodle Nation (@noodle_nation), my children’s absolute favourite Chinese Restaurant with branches in Oxford, High Wycombe, Aylesbury and Maidenhead talked about how his family celebrates. Also on the show was the lovely Caroline MiLi Artiss, who has a huge following on her YouTube show and is currently writing her first cook book on South East Asian food, can’t wait for that to come out.
