    As an Asian American born to Cantonese parents from HK, it is so touching to see these dishes explained in such detail in a way that makes it easy for all to learn how to make. It brings back all the great memories of eating these dishes with my family!
  • @bsuherlan
    Listening to Daddy Lau explained how we eat with our eyes first, then the aroma, and so on make me feels like he should be a masterchef judge

    As an Australian Asian born to Cantonese parents, it’s warming to see you preserve these recipes. I grew up working in my parent’s restaurants. I appreciate their hard work and dedication more now than when I was in my early to late teens.
