Family reunion often brings infinite comfort and satisfaction to the head of the family. Old people see their children and grandchildren, and the whole family has affection. The care and care for children in the past have not been in vain. How happy and proud this is. The younger generation can also take this opportunity to express their gratitude to their parents for their parenting.
Although "reunion dinner" is a Chinese New Year's eating activity, it has actually surpassed the general meaning of "eating" and has been promoted to a cultural entertainment and spiritual aesthetic activity.
To be exact, the "reunion dinner" is a way for people to express the cultural psychology of all ethnic groups in China with the help of food activities in the New Year. Therefore, we say that the "reunion dinner" is first of all a carrier of the festival culture, which carries the cultural accumulation and cultural implication of the Chinese nation's "festival culture" for thousands of years.
In this sense, it is almost impossible for hotels and restaurants to show the infinite charm of "reunion dinner" only by a few delicious dishes or by certain cooking techniques. No wonder people eat "reunion dinner" in hotels and restaurants, and they don't wait until the time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
Under normal circumstances, people will not stay for a long time in hotels and restaurants to have a "reunion dinner". They even come home at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV, while busy wrapping jiaozi (some people buy ready-made jiaozi in hotels to take home). When the bell of the Gala strikes zero at midnight, they will go downstairs to wrap jiaozi and set off firecrackers to welcome the New Year.
