90-year-old licenced hawker Chan Tak-ching told us she could have her roast chestnut cart back on Thursday, after today’s court ruling. She also said hawker control officers apologised to her outside court.

🇭🇰😢 Sad news today with the passing of local French restaurant chef/owner Gregory Alexandre, dying in a motorcycle accident in the early hours of February 17th. Alexandre had recently opened a new restaurant "Racines" in Sheung Wan, along with well-established BOUILLON. #RIP

food media: writing about the "lunchbox moment" is so tired and overdone 2022: – at Los Angeles, CA
My boyfriend’s work just sent out this email. Pay attention to the examples they use to describe “pungent foods.” We should not have to sacrifice our culture at work to appease white people’s palates.

To my knowledge, at least five Taiwanese commentators and politicians are gifting more than 300 bags of Taiwanese fried chicken chop for free on the street because they won/lost the bet on whether Pelosi will come or not. It's a win-win tradition and should be treasured.

Getting numb to sad news in Hong Kong but some things still cut deep. Yau Ma Tei’s iconic Mido Cafe appears to have closed permanently after 72 years. Their farewell note really struck a chord 🥺 scmp.com/lifestyle/food-drin…

“It’s the iconic ’50s interiors and architecture people come for – those curved corner windows, the hard, straight-backed banquette seats, the mosaic walls and floors. It’ll forever be a Yau Ma Tei, if not a Hong Kong, icon.” -@e_ting

Change takes time but people creating/commissioning and publishing pieces that broaden the way people think about,consume and engage w/food+drink is growing which feels very good. So stop clicking/sharing that WaPo piece and follow+share content made by people who do the work.

what happens when sex workers' lives are devalued and dehumanized, asian women reduced to objects of desire and control, chinese people painted as a virus to be expunged, asia/pacific eyed by imperial powers for centuries as a region to dominate for resources, labor, and capital

In less than 48 hours, we had a historic Asian Oscar moment with multiple firsts in 93 years—then a mass shooting targeting 3 Asian-owned businesses. This is how terrorism works—you’re not allowed to feel safe, accepted, or valued. We can resist. Take up space. Make noise.

+ A third of all the vegetable oil consumed in the world is now palm oil. The rise in palm oil production in Indonesia and Malaysia from 1990 to 2005 contributed to 'the sharpest declines in biodiversity in any biogeographical area'. From The Dasgupta Review.
