TONG YUEN...according to the Chinese calander, today is Guo Tung...a day where family members gather together to ensure the family's togetherness in the coming year. In the Chinese calander, Guo Tung is also the final event wrapping up the year before ushering in the new year. The reason this Chinese dessert was named Tong Yuen is because it sounds like the Chinese word for "togetherness".
