Lunar New Year's breakfast

Food eaten during Chinese new year always have meaning of luck and goodness associate with them. At home, on new year's morning, as a family tradition, the younger generation will serve tea to the most respected elder of family. We sat down for a wonderful breakfast with sweet soup of lotus seeds with a boiled egg. We also had pan fried savory taro cake and daikon cake, and sweet water chestnut cake and glutinous cake seared with egg. My favorite are the water chestnut cake, slightly sweet with a wonderful texture, and the lotus egg sweet soup.
