What does the reunion dinner mean?

A party where family members get together to enjoy.

Reunion dinner, also known as "family happiness", is an extremely important family dinner during the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, every family will carefully prepare rich dishes, and the whole family will sit together and enjoy the reunion.

The ingredients and dishes of the reunion dinner are auspicious, such as Nostoc flagelliforme and oyster sauce in Guangdong, which means "getting rich" and "good market". People in the Jianghuai area often eat Zi Yuan, which symbolizes perfection and reunion, while northerners will eat jiaozi, because jiaozi is shaped like an ingot, which means abundant financial resources.
