Valentine's Day Meets Chinese Happy New Year
The way it worked out this ycar, Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day both came on the same day; so, when Los Angeles Hoo Hoo scheduled their Valentine's Day dinner dance for General Lee's restaurant in Chinatown they came up with a nice blend of the two celebrations.
While firecrackers popped out,"ide and the ceremonial dragon-wound thru narrow street$ framed with bended eaves reachins skyward, Hoo-Hoos and their valentines consumed Cantonese cuisine in a private banquet room, bar and dance floor set up that was a nice cup of tea.
Snark Wally Lingo, Phil Kelty, Mike Walsh, Ken Coleman and many others put in the work arranging for the orchestra, dinner, door prizes, hostess and all the rest of the paraphernalia that it takes to put on a successful dinner dance for 50 couples.
As the Chinese said it that night: Gung Hay Fat Chov.
