The Old China Hands Lunch 13 December 2024 was a week later than normal, as I was away to USA in early December. It was also a celebration for Christmas, New Year and 25 years of Morel’s Restaurant. The following lunch is planned for Friday 3 January 2025; the price of the lunch will be slightly increased to RMB 180.
Turnout was modest as many were starting their holiday travels. The 23 participants had a good time as always.

See the menu, refer to the pictures:

• scrambled eggs Provençale style OR Morel’s chef salad (ham, blue cheese and pan-fried chicken, beef on lettuce)  OR green split peas soup
• veal sausage with onion sauce served with daily vegetables and hotchpotch potatoes OR Christmas ham with gravy vegetable and gratinated potatoes OR red snapper Provençale style served with vegetables and mashed potatoes
• daily desert

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and see you all in 2025.
