Fish is a very important delicacy in Chinese meals or cuisine. In Chinese banquet, the banquet or meal will not be complete if without fish. As fish is pronounced as "Yu" in Chinese, it means "having extra" to spare; and thus fish is always served in Chinese banquet to give good wish to host and guests for them to always have something extra to spare in that year. Most of the time, Chinese cooks the fish with its head and tail attached; as Chinese believes, this means things have "beginning and end", symbolizes one will finish whatever he/she starts (on work, study and etc). Besides this traditional belief, a more practical reason is for leaving the fish intact, it will make the dish more juicy.

In addition, fish is a great source of protein with low cholesterol, it is highly welcome by the community.
