In the kitchen
Pork, eggs and vegetables with Vietnamese mixed fish sauce
Thin slices of pork belly, egg curds, julienned carrot and green beans. Sweet, salty and tangy with bit of punch from sliced bird’s eye chilies. Easy. Inexpensive. Cooks in 30 minutes.
In the den
The next 007
It is almost certain that a British actor will play the next James Bond (casting an American would be both tragic and blasphemous). But will the film have an original story or be a re-adaptation of one or more of Ian Fleming’s work?
Elsewhere
Hong Kong: North Point
Like most tourists, I’ve only been to places and restaurants listed as “must visit” and “must try”. Too bad. But not too late. North Point was an exhilarating experience. There are two restaurants in the area where I intend to go back to next time I visit Hong Kong.
