So rude when the service isnt up to snuff.

I'd love to eat a nice CHinese meal right now though. Mr Green

It's Lunar New Year really, Japan just happens to share the same calendar as China, and China has the most people, so that's probably why it's called Chinese New Year.

And one legend says Japanese originated from China, but who really knows...

Korea also celebrates the Lunar New Year.
Is it called "Chinese New Year" in most English speaking countries? I thought it was just an American thing.
In any case, Happy New Year. It's the year of the rabbit, any one watch Moteki? Mr Green
