Earlier, you might have read about the Preparation of the Feast. Now, here's snippets of the food that were eaten during the feast.
Since I was in Hainan, the feast would not be complete without the Hainanese Mutton Soup. The mutton was one of the freshest and tastiest mutton that I have ever eaten.
While I was in Hainan, I had yet to hear any dish that is called Hainan Chicken Rice. However, I have heard that Wenchang Chicken is quite a well-known dish there.
One of my relatives told me that the vegetable dish that you see on the table is cooked in the Hainanese way. I love vegetables.
I also got to eat a kind of rice-cake which you would see in the photos below. Accordingly to what I vaguely remember, this rice-cake symbolised the link between one and one's place-of-origin. I was told that this is the item that I must eat.
It tasted good, and is handy to carry.
I did not count how many people had came for the feast but there should be at least ten households.

Thanks to Jaymes 007, I finally recalled that the rice-cake is called lup in Hainanese.
