What's New?
23rd August
Well time has flown and lots has happened with my life.
I am now a
proud father and as such site updates have been impacted I'm afraid!
CantoDict is still going strong though and I hope to find time for some useful updates soon.
On a less positive note, we are currently undergoing a spam attack, so please bear with us while we
try and deal with this.

The display case, as detailed by The Philadelphia Inquirer, is packed with buns filled with corn and topped with flower-shaped sprinkles, oblong loaves with cheese and pork floss, glossy durian pastries, buns coated in pork floss and seaweed, and Portuguese egg tarts with brûléed custard. Most items land in the $1.50 to $3 range, a price point the paper notes helps explain the steady midday crowds. 07:19 by ♭♫

In-N-Out Wouldn’t Take My Order… So I Went Into Chinatown Before Closing

I went into Chinatown before closing and asked if any shops had leftover food they’d be willing to discount if I bought what was left. Little by little, one yes turned into another - and by the end, I brought trays of Chinese food, bakery items, and desserts back to feed people on the streets of San Francisco’s Tenderloin.
What started as a quiet ask became more than I expected. Not just food, but small moments of kindness, people remembering what was brought before, and care continuing even after the meal was over.
This mission is never only about food.
It’s about presence.
It’s about returning.
It’s about carrying what you can, and meeting people where they are with dignity, compassion, and care.

And should that had happen, then nervous investors will have even more reasons to be even more nervous about the Digital Yuan which is designed to hold your investment hostage.

"We wanted to control its destiny," Eugene Lau said. "The most important thing for us is that we come back to Chinatown. We have to figure it out."
Alvin Lau echoed that sentiment, noting the move was a way to "reconnect with culture, kind of pay respects to our parents, our old heritage, but also bring in all the new stuff." 05/28/2026 by ♭♫
[+-]The Communist Democratic party of California is following the CCP playbook on censorship in Hong Kong with the Nick Shirley Act and many major companies have already divested out of California. Protecting criminals and fraud defines the Democratic Party of the United States of America and that makes you wonder which American politicians really belong in jail for aiding and abetting fraud against the American tax payers.

The Nick Shirley Act actually looks like it is really protecting corrupt Communist politicians like Gavin Newsom with conflicts of interests from being investigated like Ilhan Omar and Tim Walz as if they were in California.
