"Lou Hei" with family and friends!
This dish consists of raw fish slices, crushed peanuts, shredded pomelo, carrots, radish, lettuces, and many varieties of colorful raw vegetables and fruits placed together on a large dish. When it is served, everyone will stand up with their chopsticks and toss up all the shredded ingredients as high as possible into the air with the chopsticks, while saying auspices wishes (吉祥话) out loud at the same time. Everyone who participate in the "lou hei" will have better business opportunities and success for the coming New Year and the higher one tosses, the greater will be his fortunes for the year.
