Lunch: Leftover dim sum from Chinatown

Dinner: We heated a bunch of leftovers from Fortune Chinese Seafood Restaurant and the stewed pigs feet from Tina's parents for dinner

Dinner: After watching a performance of the Radio City Holiday Spectacular, we ate a dinner of crawfish and Dungeness crab with our favorite seasoning choice - Fire-Grilled.

Lunch: In what might be an after Christmas tradition, we went to IKEA for their New Year's sale and ate IKEA food for lunch. I had meatballs, mashed potatoes, and a kid's portion of mac 'n cheese.

Lunch: Having found out the previous night that Chinatown Restaurant was going to be open and serving dim sum until 2:30pm on Christmas Day, we decided to go there for lunch to try the dim sum for the second time. All the dishes we had previously remained good or improved (like the Peking duck which was excellent today). The only problem I had was the shrimp dumpling where the dumpling skin was a little gummy.

Dinner: We went over to Tina's parent's house for Christmas dinner where we had soy sauce cooked pig's feet, fish with tofu, shrimp with pineapple, green beans and potato, mung bean noodles with cucumber, radish, and vinegar, and pidan with white rice.

Dinner: We had Christmas Eve dinner at Fortune Chinese Seafood Restaurant (10901 North Lamar Boulevard, Austin, TX (512) 490-1426) where we've had dim sum a number of times but never ordered from the dinner menu before. We ordered a few items which turned out to be pretty decent.

We started with the Assorted Seafood Claypot which both Tina and I liked a lot. It had good fish flavor, nice sauce (flavorful but not overly salty), and soft and tasty tofu.
