Valentine’s Day is just one day a year but any day is a good day for romance. I’ve gathered together some of my favourite seductive, saucy, huggable dishes for delicious wooing and canoodling

Lunar New Year

February 4, 2019

Lunar New Year (or Chinese New Year) is one of the world’s great annual celebrations. How big? Well, in China people are expected to take around three billion journeys as they travel to join family for festivities. The shebang begins on Thursday February 15, with the Year of the Dog starting the following day, and celebrations continuing for 23 days. Special ‘lucky’ foods are eaten during this period, sometimes because of their colour (red is lucky) and often because their name is a homonym for words such as ‘luck’, ‘prosperity’, ‘wealth’.
