My favourite memory of chinese new year

My favourite memory of Chinese new year was last year, when I had a gathering with my uncles and aunties in the home of my grandfather. We ate delicious food together, and played together. What made the Chinese new year last year so special was that we ate the food that was prepared by my father, and the food was very very delicious. Normally we would just eat normal food that our maid prepared, but last year, we ate top-quality abalone, which was prepared by my father, and my father cooked very well. At the first smell, I was so attracted to that heavenly scent that I rushed from my room to the kitchen. When I reached the kitchen, that dish was ready to be served. When I first saw the slices of the abalone, I was immediately attracted to it, and the desire of eating that dish grew stronger with every breath I took in which was filled with the heavenly scent, and every second I stared at the dish. Finally after much waiting, I get to eat the abalone. When I placed a slice of abalone in between my lips, I can feel how smooth it was. The taste of the sauce and the juice from the abalone blended together perfectly, giving me a taste of "happiness". When I moved my teeth slowly together, I could feel the chewy texture, and with even more flavour released from the abalone. Even after I swallowed the slice of abalone, the flavour stayed on my lips, and I can smell the great flavour coming out from even my breath! This was a truly wonderful experience, where I had tasted one of the most delicious food in my life.
