Gung Haggis Fat Choy

This is Vancouver's mayor, Larry Campbell, the man who served as the basis of the character of the coroner on DaVinci's Inquest, a Canadian television series.

As you can see, he is wearing a Chinese jacket with his kilt. He was one of the imaginative dressers that came out for Gung Haggis Fat Choy last night in Vancouver at the Floata Seafood Restaurant in Chinatown. It is claimed that Floata is North America's largest Chinese restaurant.

When I called in to CBC radio & correctly answered a question on a contest, I won two tickets to this event, along with several sets of theatre tickets & a Tuscan cookbook.

Gung Haggis Fat Choy is also known as Toddish McWong's Robbie Burns Chinese New Year Dinner. It is a truly Vancouver happening that illustrates the limitless value of our Canadian cultural mosaic.

Thank you Frankie Kerr for being my date for the evening & taking the excellent photographs that are included with this post, except of course the one of you & I.
