The hard work that I saw my dad put into Chinese food

makes me feel really proud.

Proud that I was lucky enough to learn from a master.

I want people to value it the same way that I do.

So what is the value of Chinese food?

Is it the taste?

Is it the hard work and the training?

Or is it the dish's history and the nostalgia it makes us feel?

To me, it is all of those things.

But the value of Chinese food is often compared to fast food,

quick and cheap.

Although we've spent years developing skills to cook faster,

Chinese food isn't fast food.

It requires skills,

mastery of ingredients

and nostalgia.

Cooking represents all the hard work and memories that we had,

learning the art,

mastering the skills

and understanding the history of Chinese food.

So the next time you visit a Chinese restaurant,

just remember.

It's not just a plate of fried rice.

It's so much more than that.
