Chinese New Year Yee Sang (Prosperity Toss) at Aunty Franklee, Russell Street, Melbourne. To celebrate Chinese New Year, the Chinese enjoy a special dish comprising seven symbolic delicacies called Yee Sang, which means 'increase in abundance and vigour'. The ritual is to toss the mixed ingredients high in the air with a shout of 'Loh Hey', literally meaning to ‘move upwards’. It's symbolic of the wish for our fortunes and prosperity to rise and expand during the forthcoming year. Yee Sang consists of strips of raw fish (salmon), mixed with shredded vegetables, pomelo or lime, pepper, oil, and a variety of sauces and condiments. #yesang #yusang #prosperitytoss #rawsalmon #lohhei #chinesenewyear2017 #yearoftherooster #auntyfranklee #russellstreet #melbourne #kungheefatchoy #instaprosperity (at Aunty Franklee)
