My Chinese Tablescape
Preparing a Chinese meal this week of Won Ton Soup and an Orange Beef served over rice, I decided to try a Chinese Tablescape. Kinda, sorta. I guess it’s probably more a Chinese/American tablescape. I think I need to be on the lookout for some inexpensive Chinese bowls, plates and other goodies since Chinese cuisine is not completely unheard of around here.
This small wood carving we purchased in China when my husband and I were there 20 years ago this month. The Oriental Poppies I won in a drawing along with the placemat it is setting on.
Won Ton Soup that was quite good but not like Mr. Tim’s. Mr. Tim is the chef/owner of a local Chinese restaurant and I have never found anyone else’s Won Ton Soup to compare. I really need to find out his secret.
Thank you for stopping by for my 2nd week to participate in Tablescape Thursday.
