AS the Year of the Rabbit approaches, those celebrating the Chinese New Year can look forward to savouring special dishes usually served during this time.

Although the reunion dinner (tuan nian fan) is especially important to Chinese tradition as it brings families together for reconciliation and strengthening of bonds, meals surrounding this occasion also tend to be a bit more special.
