Hi Polly,
All sounds good, except the almond tea, because Chinese Doctors don't suggest pregnant woman take almond or any food contains almond, especially not during the first trimester. Plus Chinese almond has two types, bitter one（北杏仁） and sweet one（南杏仁）, bitter one is poisonous but normally been used as a special Chinese medicine in some Chinese prescriptions.Cantonese traditional almond tea normally combined those two types of almonds, but in different portions, use less bitter one than sweet one. About this point I also checked with a western doctor, he also mentioned that Chinese doctors suggest not take almonds during early pregnancy.
But there is another one called : 桑寄生蓮子蛋茶 which suppose to be very good for pregnant woman.
Here is a link you can have a look, but it's in Chinese traditional: http://www.christinesrecipes.com/2010/08/chinese-herbal-dessert.html?m=1
Just in case if we need more options.
Thanks a lot for organizing this dinner for us, looking forward to it.
