I have read two books by Mr. Wang, Taste and Warm Food. Well written, it makes you hungry and humorous. For example, lard, Indian eating curry bone marrow and koi fish are all harmless jokes or teasing. When you watch it, you should keep recording how to do this and how to do that, enjoy it and throw yourself into it. From the article itself, I feel that there is a style and brand of Hong Kong literati in that era.
Cai Lan, Jin Yong, Huang Zongxi and Ni Kuang are called "Four Great Talents" and "Gourmets"! Old Mr. Jin Yong once commented on Cai Lan: He is well-informed, good at piano, chess, painting and calligraphy, rich in debauchery, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, literature and movies, and knows everything. In film, poetry, calligraphy, epigraphy and diet, it can be said to be a first-class channel.
The world is very big, and he thinks some place is the best in the world. Does he really taste the same food all over the world? Obviously impossible. Of course, food has its advantages and disadvantages, but the world is full of miracles. There is no need to regard his recommendation as a sacred book, let alone pretend to praise it. Eat, or wrap your stomach, or nourish, or be happy. If you don't like something that others like, it is foolish to waste your time to get it.
