"The New Year is one of my favorite and most special menus to put together at Alma. The first dish, rice wine and ginger chicken, is a very traditional Hakka dish that my mum has been making this since I was a little girl. I have to admit I didn’t appreciate it so much when I was younger, but I really do savor it now. The two key ingredients are our-house made rice wine and plenty of ginger. The sweet soy wok fried noodles are another Hakka classic and long noodles symbolize longevity." - Sophie Friedman
