Gan Bei

Chinese tradition of toasting after dinner. Literally means "bottoms up," "dry the cup," or "empty your glass." Often started by a host who might toast all seated as his table, or by walking over to each guest and toasting them at their place at the table. Also see gan bei-ing

Host: I will visit you four times this evening to gan bei.

Guest: What, only four times?
