2025 is The Year of the " Snake".
The snake is the sixth animal in the Chinese zodiac, and is associated with wisdom, elegance, and transformation. It's also said to represent intuition, keen observation, and adaptability.
Recent Years of the Snake are 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, and 2025.
Let’s celebrate the Chinese New Year (The Year of the Snake 1/29/2025) together by wearing something red and eating delicious Chinese food at the Hunan Manor restaurant in Columbia. The dishes are served FAMILY STYLE. You share every dish with 9 other guests at your table.
We have reserved a private dinning room for 30 guests. This popular event was sold out last year. Register NOW.
