There'll be a yearly Snake dinner for Lammaites, next Thursday, Jan 21, 7:30pm in Central, close to Lamma ferry pier. Ideal for the cold winter weather as snake is supposedly very "warming".

This is being organised by the District Council and subsidised by the govt. Lamma-Por and I have been attending every year and this year we have reserved an entire table of 12. Unexpectedly, we're now still missing 3 people to fill our multinational table. Anybody interested? PM me!

$130 per person, to be confirmed and paid for by tomorrow, Fri afternoon.

There'll be at least 150+ Lammaites, an entire floor of the specialised snake dinner restaurant, 8 courses, about 3 of them with snake, snake wine included.
You’ll meet fellow Lammaites, especially local families, the Silent Majority, people you rarely ever see in restaurants or out in the evenings on Main Street.

Hi L-G, do you know what kind of snake and where the meat comes from? It is either from further south or you all will be eating frozen snake as most have been inactive here for quite awhile.

Can you find out for me?

OK, I'll ask them on the night.

But if it's frozen meat I doubt that they'll admit to that, with all the emphasis on how healthy and "warming" snake is in the Chinese diet. It's usually eaten only in winter months, supposed to be fresh, and usually claimed to originate in Southern China. I see your point and will ask.

Anybody wants to come along? Deadline for booking is today.

This year's snake banquet for all Lammaites,
walking distance from the Central ferry pier in a specialised cooperative association rest., $190 each.
Tickets from Yu Lai Fan's office on Main Street #72, just besides the Lamma Gourmet.

Search for "snake banquet" at the top of the home page for photos of earlier banquets.
Each table will have a bottle of (pretty good) snake liquor.

This year's snake banquet for all Lammaites, organised by Outlying Islands Women's Association, headed locally by Yu Lai Fan, I think.

The venue is in walking distance from the Central ferry pier in a specialised cooperative association rest., $200 each.
Tickets from Yu Lai Fan's office on Main Street #72, just besides the Lamma Gourmet.

Search for "snake banquet" at the top of the home page for photos of earlier banquets.
Each table will have a bottle of (pretty nice, in my own experience) snake liquor.
