— wouldn’t it be great if sharks are not in danger of extinction, so that we can partake in sharksfin at will. There are many other examples of endangered species that are prominent, especially on Cantonese tables,...

everything from scratch. My in-laws OTOH lived in DC where they had better access to supplies. Even now, the best meals I have are on Chinese New Years where they all spend a week preparing and have this table full of amazing...
