Dim Sum at Fortunate Restaurant

Qing Ming is the day where descendants are to pay respect to their ancestors.

In past, most people will go to the cemetery to visit their ancestors during Qing Ming period, i.e. clear the weeds, burn incense etc.

In Singapore, most people will cremate the deceased bodies and store them in the columbarium instead as land is quite limited. Any existing cemeteries will be exhumed in phases over the next few years.

Went to Fortunate for lunch after paying respects to my ancestors...

My Ramblings...


I was quite impressed with the food as it turns out better than the branches at Food Republic (a popular food centre that can be found in Wisma and Suntec).

The ambiance here is very nostalgic as well. Typical HK dim sum style where trays of dim sum were being pushed around and one can order then and there.
