Special meal on sunday, country tradition

When we were growing up, we use to have Sunday;s dinner all together, the entire family would gather at the dinner table.. I feel like every meal we had together was a special meal... We always had a full 5 course dinner,,,but now that I am the only one I have to cook for I as not having full course dinners. Its what I want when I want if I want...

I'm sure some people have traditions like that here but we personally don't. We've never really had family dinners, just mum and me and she would make me dinner when I came home after school but she hardly ever eats as far as I ever saw. We don't eat at the same time very often

When I was younger, my mother always made special meals on Sunday for right after church. She would make either a stew, a roast or some kind of chicken. I missed that a lot and now I don't do that here. I think that I may come up with that tradition myself to cook something yummy for my husband and I to have on Sundays, but we both work so maybe some other day. So that we can enjoy it together.

We don't really have a certain special dish that we have on Sundays for dinner. What our family usually does on Sunday is that we will go over to my mother's house and we will all eat dinner together almost every Sunday. You see, my brother, sister-in-law, three nieces and my sister all still live with my mother and we really do like to spend a lot of time together because our family has always been a really, really close family.

Our traditional meal on Sundays used to be the lunch gathering in Chinese restaurants, which we called "Yum Cha" (drink tea). We have a pot of Chinese tea, and we eat Dim Sum like barbecue pork buns, shrimp dumplings, beef balls, etc. We have this tradition for many years. Nowadays, people go Yum Cha not only on Sundays but as every day meal too.

Hello Every weekend we try to cook special meals for the whole family. Since we are all working in the city so when weekend come we're all exited to gather together. My father used to invite our niece,nephews even close relatives during lunch or dinner. We are all big happy family..:)

I think mostly now people go out to eat on Sunday. It is a shame. Yes, we used to all have special Sunday dinners. For a lot of years my mom would cook a beef pot roast. After she was living alone it was usually chicken with rice and vegetables. It is a good family tradition to eat together, especially family meals.

Hi, Gone are the days when we go to market on a Sunday morning to buy pork or beef and stew them on a slow fire until tender, adding vegetables and spices before serving it hot with rice and fruits. I am a weight watcher now and eating that kind of food may aggravate the issue. Most of the neighborhood though still do the same with variations in between. Nowadays, my idea of a Sunday treat is a shake or salad of my favorite fruits with creamer, milk and crushed ice especially on hot days.

Hi, Sunday is a holiday. My son is also with us. So we have different types of special dishes on Sunday. We enjoy Sunday as our son is with us. He is living away due to his job. On Sunday my wife prepares favorite dishes of my son. We have variety of dishes.

Hi friend, good to hear about this special meal, we have various kind of festivals in our country, at that time people will follow some traditions, apart from it, i will cook on every weekends, my wife will cook in the week days

well, I came from Tapanuli, North Sumatera (a province in Indonesia). I live with my parents in Jakarta (capital city of Indonesia). But, we use to have our traditional food on Sunday or special occasion :) Our traditional food is grilled meat with condiment and chicken soup. Once the food served, we can't stop eating hahaha...

We have usually rice, chicken or beef, vegetables and salads for special meal. We enjoy the meal very much as all the family members gather together.

Only on big days of the year we have some traditions..but I like the sunday tradition.It is a good food.I hope that tradition will no end soon.
