The best restaurant in Zetland talks about fish in the Chinese culture

Fish plays an important role in the Chinese culture and is said to be a lucky mascot. The interesting thing when trying to pronounce fish in Chinese is that it sounds exactly the same as another word, which has the meaning of surplus “yu2”. The best restaurant in Zetland will talk to you about fish in the Chinese culture.

On the eve of Chinese New Year, almost every Chinese family will prepare an entire fish as a compulsory dish, as it symbolises a fine desire of keeping lots of wealth in the coming year. This tradition has been passed down from generations to generations and it is now considered a must have dish at all events.

It is said that the Eight Diagram is made up of two fishes, one being yin (black) and the other yang (white). The picture of the Ultimate is an octagon formed by 8 elements, which work in harmony due to the yin and yang.

Back in the days, wealthy families prefer houses with pools because of this reason, while now some Chinese families prefer keeping fish in tanks.
