    Hi, 老劉。
    不久前我退休,才發現你的雙語視頻,很令我感動。
    我們也是移民家庭,在加拿大生活多年,帶大兩個孩子,亦經歷了移民的艱辛歷程。
    你退休了,仍在家中努力讓你的首本名菜承傳下去,相信訂閱的,有許多海外不懂華語的華裔下一代,你及家人功不可沒。偶然還分享家中溫馨的一面,不開火鑽但火喉十足的心靈雞湯,妙極了。
    跟據聯合國指標,65歲才踏入中年。要健健康康,開開心心的渡過每一天啊。
    希望能一直看到你的廚藝,加油。

    It opened up my comprehension the team does way more than the actual results the viewer finally sees. I sense you may share my sentiment where an 8 hour work day can't cover everything. You make time to assemble the wood frames for your camera equipment and I commit the time to wake up at 3AM to take my medication and have breakfast before I begin my 55 minute work commute and arrive earlier than everyone else to get set for the day. When my family used to have a Chinese restaurant SOMEONE has to commit the time to chop the vegetables, make the sauces and wipe down the sauce bottles to place onto the table, it just doesn't happen magically like most believe. I have learned to ask for help, as you did by hiring a professional Chinese translator instead of burdening your mom. No doubt Mom can do it BUT she should try to enjoy the magic of producing content.

    Thank you for this insight. I'd love to hear Mister and Missus Lau's insight and if she's comfortable your sister too!

    My SW Chicken Corn chowder is the bomb. Tips: build a good stock (use rotisserie chicken), use actual corn on the cob (peaches and cream – cut off) – potatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, red bell pepper, chipotle, cumin. Sea salt/black pepper to taste. Par-boil all of the veg in stock minus corn and what you want to caramelize (onion, garlic) then add corn, cook 7-8min, then starch slurry to thicken, then heavy cream, paprika and cubed cooked chicken at the end. Trick is to not hit the final ingredients with any more heat than needed, as they can toughen. You can also just build an awesome corn chowder, BBQ chicken breasts with southwest seasoning, then slice and lay into the bowl upon service. Makes it far easier to warm up leftovers and not mess your chicken up by having proteins disintegrate or toughen. (seasoned browned ground turkey can also be subbed in)

    Like Kat said, the first video was still a good video and like you said, it had a a lot of info to take in at the start. To be honest, I would still watch the video but would be a little distracted because I know that Mommy Lau is there to help viewers understand what's being said but at the same time it feels weird as someone who speaks Cantonese. I'm glad that Cantonese was at the forefront and I appreciate the Toisanese that your dad sprinkles in (I grew up with my grandparents so I understand it but can't speak it). That was what drew me to your channel in the beginning and I've stayed since then to live through you guys and enjoy the family love that I couldn't have.

    最开始的视频很好。其实如果播出来我还会看但会觉得怪怪的,因为脑子里明白刘妈妈是帮观众朋友们翻译但同时听得懂广东话所以不许要。很高兴视频用上广东话也感谢刘爸爸的台山话。从小时候就跟我爷爷奶奶长大所以听得懂但没有水平讲而他们已经过世。广东话对我来说很重要也是看你们的视频的理由和点赞在2020年到现在。很荣幸很感谢可以感觉到你们拥有的家。每一次看到视频都很开心!

    I really love your channel and how close you are to your family. Do you take recipe requests? I’d love to see your dad’s take on a sort of chinese curry chicken if he has one in his repertoire!

    Hi, I just wanna say that I follow you guys from Belgium. I love the fact that you let your dad speak in Cantonese without cover his voice because I’m Chinese too but don’t read chinese at all. So your video is just perfect for following your recipes.
    Plus, I love the fact that you add some explanation of the meaning or history of our culture or food❤❤❤
