Description
I know I always say on all my shows 'this is a very special episode'. But this time, I REALLY mean it! It's special for a few reasons:<br/>* It was my first live show with an audience<br/>* People paid £14.06 for a ticket (thanks guys)<br/>* Proceeds were donated to London Chinese Community Centre and the event raised just over £2K.<br/>* Two amazing guests, John Li from Dumpling Shack and food writer and Takeaway book author Angela Hui shared a stage with me.<br/>* There were raffle prizes (is it even an event if there's no raffle prizes? Asking for a friend, LOL).<br/><br/>Angela, John and I have all been brought up in our parents Chinese takeaway/restaurant and we share stories from behind the counter. It was heartwarming and personally for me, it felt like therapy. If only I knew there were more takeaway kids when I was growing up!!<br/><br/>This event is part of ESEAHM (East and Southeast Asian Heritage Month). Thanks to Besean for hosting this for the 2nd year running.<br/><br/>A few insta pages to check out!<br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/chinesechippygirl/?hl=en'>Chinese Chippy Girl</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/angelahuii/?hl=en'>Angela Hui</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/dumplingshack/?hl=en'>Dumpling Shack</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/thelondonccc/?hl=en'>London Chinese Community Centre</a><br/><a href='https://www.instagram.com/besea.n/?hl=en'>Besean</a><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
