In addition to the mandatory snacks which consist of various cakes and cookies, there is also another special dish that never fails to generate her sense of longing. &#8220;Black ink calamari, stuffed chicken, and steak and beef tongue are the signature dishes of my grandmother during Christmas. I do not know how to make it, obviously it really does taste delicious,\u201d she said. No wonder, when Christmas comes, the relatives that gathered at the grandparents\u2019s house could reach almost 40 people! In fact, out of the total of eight siblings from my mother\u2019s side, there are three people who celebrate Christmas,&#8221; said Ella.<br \/>\nIn addition to family gathering, another mandatory agenda when she is in Surabaya is joining the choir in the cathedral during Christmas mass. This activity has been done since the last nine years. &#8220;Hence, my choir group is very solid, just like a family.
