We celebrate Chinese holidays traditionally at China Lee Restaurant, and it means a lot to us. These special occasions allow us to connect with our roots and share the joy of Chinese traditions with our guests.


Whether you're a long-time admirer of Chinese traditions or experiencing them for the first time, China Lee is the perfect place to celebrate these meaningful holidays in Miami.


 

Lunar New Year: Welcoming the Year of Good Fortune


Among the most important and widely celebrated Chinese holidays is Lunar New Year, which marks the beginning of the Chinese lunar calendar. Typically occurring between late January and early February, this holiday is a time for family reunions, feasting, and honoring ancestors. At China Lee, we enhance the celebration with a special menu featuring traditional dishes that symbolize good luck, wealth, and prosperity.


Must-Try Dishes for Lunar New Year at China Lee:


  • Dumplings (饺子) – These crescent-shaped delights symbolize wealth and prosperity. At China Lee, our handmade dumplings are filled with savory ingredients like pork, chicken, shrimp, and vegetables, and they are expertly steamed or pan-fried to perfection. Dumplings are a perfect dish to share with loved ones, bringing everyone together to enjoy a tasty tradition.

  • Whole Fish (全鱼) – In Chinese culture, the word for "fish" (鱼, yú) sounds like "surplus" or "abundance," making it an essential dish for a prosperous year ahead. Our Fish with Black Bean Sauce or Salt & Pepper Fish is prepared with care, bringing out the delicate flavors of the fish and ensuring it’s the centerpiece of your festive meal.

  • Spring Rolls (春卷) – Shaped like gold bars, spring rolls symbolize wealth and prosperity. Our crispy spring rolls are filled with a delicious mixture of vegetables, shrimp, or pork—perfect as a crunchy and satisfying appetizer to kick off your celebration.

  • Fortune Cookies (幸运饼干) – While not traditionally Chinese, fortune cookies have become a fun and popular addition to the Lunar New Year festivities. At China Lee, we add a little extra fun by offering free fortune cookies with every order, letting everyone enjoy a surprise to end the meal.


Lunar New Year is all about sharing joy, good fortune, and time with family. We invite you to join us for a festive meal that will bring prosperity and happiness to your loved ones.


 

Mid-Autumn Festival: A Time for Harvest and Unity


Another major Chinese holiday is the Mid-Autumn Festival, which usually takes place in September or October. This celebration honors the harvest, the full moon, and the reunion of family members. A key tradition of the Mid-Autumn Festival is the sharing of mooncakes, a round pastry filled with various sweet or savory fillings. These mooncakes symbolize completeness, unity, and the importance of family bonds.
