  3. The chefs from Hong Kong want dim sum. Where do you take them?

    When Quinn Doan from the Hong Kong tourism board asked me if I could show a few chefs around the San Gabriel Valley last week, it may have taken me all of a second and a half to agree. I am forever going on about the diversity and high quality of local Chinese restaurants, which are generally agreed to be the best in the country, but I thought it might be interesting to see the cooking through the eyes of knowledgeable visitors on their first visit to Los Angeles – visitors who all happened to have won Michelin stars for their restaurants in Hong Kong.

  5. Edward Snowden wrong about Hong Kong, some in territory say

    HONG KONG — It's probably for the best that Edward Snowden didn't turn up at a weekend rally in support of him here in this former British colony. Having declared that he has faith in Hong Kong's rule of law, and that he believes the courts and people of the semiautonomous Chinese territory will decide his fate, he might have been distressed by legislator Claudia Mo's downbeat remarks.
