One of the two artificial island tunnel landings for the HongKong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge project. It's a 29.6 km carriageway which includes a 6.7 km tunnel, to connect all 3 port cities. The things China do, mega structures galore.

Part of what I love about food is the cultural ethnography that comes along with it. My close friends sometimes bring me small food items from their travels and I absolutely adore it. I get to take a peek into another culture and what they eat, why and wh

Food prep for an interview with @berryshine. I decided to make Chicken Mushroom Rice, a favorite comfort dish from my dad's hakka heritage.

#dashoffood is getting a boost of inspiration from my lovely and talented friend @berryshine . I cooked a family classic passed down from my dad to me by osmosis for her lovely project to empower herself to grow her blog and photography passions. We both

Today's factory manager's "Ayi/Auntie" home cooked lunch meal: pork ribs with cassava root soup, sauteed spinach with garlic, stuffed squid (minced squid/pork/water chestnut), braised pork hock. Flavour was great. Best request I made since the last trip,

Saturday dinner time prep in Xiamen City on Taiwan Street. We headed over to the grilled fish restaurant to try out their variety of this popular meal. Verdict? I prefer the ones near the factory district of TongAn, more southeast flavours, heavy of cumin

Back at the hotel finally, and figured out how to unwind and treat myself when the hotel is kind of in the middle of nowhere... This is my reward solution for a design innovation intense day that lasted 12 hours long. Thank goodness for room service! Slai

My last full day here, and it's still foggy. I have a bay view room, and barely seen the bay this time. I haven't seen open skies and sunshine since my arrival 9 days ago, and it's getting to me... Now I can't wait to go home. Fresh air, hopefully open bl

The lone bicycle trash collector. Interesting. Seems like a peaceful job, to tide the vast tarmacs and use an armed contraption to pick up any trash or debris. As you can see, visibility is still an issue. The fog hasn't lifted enough; it is lifting, but
