I’ll never forget my visit to Hong Kong. When I arrived, everybody was very busy with preparations involved. The atmosphere was fantastic. There were bright colours and delicious smells everywhere. The local people were cleaning every corner of their houses and decorating the walls with red pieces of paper.

Another custom is to cook fish on New Year’s Ever and eat the next day. My friend told me that they wanted to have something to eat on the first day of the year.

I was really looking forward to New Year’s Eve Dinner. The whole family got together and everyone was really happy. I noticed that the grandparents and parents gave children red envelopes with money inside. After dinner they all started playing cards for good luck. Nobody went to sleep before midnight. At midnight the great event begins: fireworks! I was really amazed. All around the city I could see and hear colourful fireworks. It was incredible and I was really excited.

SHROVE TUESDAY

The French call this day ’Mardi Gras’, which means ’Fat Tuesday’, because they had to use up any fatty food (such as milk, eggs and butter). To do this, they made crepes-thin pancakes which you roll up and eat with sugar. Today they still celebrate Mardi Gras by eating crepes.

In Italy, Shrove Tuesday is called ‘Carnevale’, which means ‘goodbye to meat’ and gives us the word Carnival. People eat fritters (special fried pastries), and in Naples they have a pasta dish called Grande Lasagne di Carnevale. The most famous Carnival is in Venice, where people in expensive costumes and handmade masks go to fashionable parties and dances.

In New Orleans, USA, the whole carnival season is called Mardi Gras, because it ends on ShroveTuesday – but it starts on 6 January! There are fancy-dress parties, street parades and food. Traditionally, everyone eats King Cakes, which are round cakes covered in purple, green and gold sugar, with a tiny baby doll hidden inside the cake.
