DUBLIN, New Hampshire (January 2008)--Yankee Magazine celebrates China and its cuisine by visiting Joanne Chang, chef and owner of Flour Bakery & Café and the recently opened Myers + Change restaurant, who hosts a Chinese New Year party at her loft on the outskirts of Boston?s Chinatown.

"During the two-week celebration of Chinese New Year, the neighborhood welcomes dragon dancers and elaborate parades, fireworks that light up the sky, and family get-togethers centered around a time-honored tradition," reports Annie B. Copps, senior editor/food at Yankee Magazine. "It's the perfect opportunity to cook all day and have a few close friends over."

For those less familiar with the tradition but interested in celebrating Chinese New Year, for which festivities begin February 7 this year and end February 21, Annie B. Copps offers a special menu that includes Chinese dumplings, longevity noodles, happy shrimp, firecracker beef, whole steamed fish, Chinese mustard greens, fortune cookies, and cupcakes.
