Every holiday and special occasion has a foundation built on traditions. The majority of these traditions are centered around food. Especially when we think of a New Years Eve Celebration, many traditions around the world include food which symbolize luck, prosperity, health and good fortune. Items to be found on such a Menu may be: Pork– it brings good luck and favorable fortune. If you are not a meat eater, so will any other treat in the shape of a pig do the same thing; Fish Scales or any dish with fish which symbolizes silver, hence precious metals of fine fortune; Bread or Cakes with trinkets baked inside, those who are lucky enough to end up with the trinket are the recipient of good fortune and luck; Eating 12 Grapes at the stroke of midnight, a good luck forecast grape for each month; Eating long, uncut noodles at 12 o’clock for an equally long life. From all of us at Epicure Catering, we hope you have a fantastic New Years Celebration which will bring you into the New Year with all the Well Wishes you desire, whatever your Menu may be. Enjoy.
