Lobster noodles: Lobster meat with long noodles
This is a gratuitous foodie picture. Yes, long noodles signify longevity. You can find this dish (with or without the lobster) at birthday parties and New Year feasts.
The taste is what you would expect–tender lobster over gravied mein. However, I liked the visual aspect of the dish the most. There’s something striking about the vibrant red of the seafood against the more subtle tones of the noodles.
What symbolic foods do you eat?
Lobster…mmmm. I love lobster for celebration times. Steamed, with drawn butter.
That sounds good, Veronica! I like mine with lemon :)
