simmered rock fish - had steamed crabs and simmered whole fish ( both local and wild) for a delayed Middle Autumn Festival.
- the concert was a fixed menu of 5 movements, Mahler Symphony No. 2, served by a big orchestra ( 6 trumpets, 8 French horns, countless strings and a long array of percussion) and a big chorus with an alto and a soprano. A captivating masterpiece, much better in a live performance, with all the offstage "sound of distance" effects.
