    My wife and I are Sai Kung regulars who have found Ms Lam to be an absolutely wonderful caring, capable and talented lady who makes, cooks and serves really delicious wonton noodles as well as many other tasty dishes. Her restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

    I don't even know this woman but I am soooo proud of her. I would say this is her restaurant with the loving memory of her husband and father. The restaurant has her identity in it and her attachment to it is very much reflected in her customers that say it is just like a home when being there. Bless her and her family.

    This woman's perseverance is insane. Having two of her closest family members being diagnosed with cancer after her business folded, and re-building everything after that. I don't think I could do half of what she did

    What a lovely story to accompany her wonton mein, I love hearing Cantonese, I'm Cantonese born in Johannesburg, South Africa, so I've never experienced Cantonese culture, what we know is from our grandparents,so watching this video makes me so proud to be Cantonese 👲👲👲

      Another proud Cantonese here.
      Cantonese Cuisine is probably the best in the world because there is a major emphasis on freshness.
      Beside Ms Lam's WONDERFUL Wonton + Seur Gao, we have other delicious and delightful Dim Sum,
      Cantonese Roast Duck/Goose,(superior to the Peking wannabe)Char Siu, + Lobster with Black Bean Sauce,

    Thank-you for posting another video in Cantonese. I don't have any Chinese friends who speak Cantonese and my older sister, mother and father passed away recently so there goes my source of speaking and listening to Cantonese. i love the videos where the person speaks Cantonese. My mom spoke Cantonese, Mandarin as well as Haka. Dad only spoke Cantonese with some Mandarin. My aging aunts and uncles still living don't speak Cantonese to me. Back in the late 60's when my family left Hong Kong to immigrate to Canada, Cantonese is spoken by everyone in and around Hong Kong. Sadly overtime more and more people are speaking Mandarian which is illogical to me as I know and was taught the history and origins of how Mandarin came to be. It isn't a true language of the Chinese people. Though ignorantly it got adapted and made official as such because it is easier to learn.

    It is PRECISELY because of tough, kind, smart, beautiful people like Ms Kam, whom not only survived, but even THRIVED
    against all adversities, that HKongers live so long, having been forged by hardships.
    Yes, the Wonton Shop is DEFINITELY her baby.
    Extremely gratifying to see her son wrapping the wontons.

    As I was watching I thought - it takes a special woman/person to persevere through and do what all she has done and with that smile. I thought - that’s bigger than one person’s ability and then thought I think/hope she’s a person of faith. Sure enough, right as I thought that, she mentioned God and there’s a cross in the background in the wall. Beautiful

    • @mas502arc

      One more thing to add to that thought - when she talks about singing songs with her husband in the hospital, the translation in the video says "songs", but in Cantonese I do believe she is saying "hymns".

    Hearing the si tau po speak Cantonese made me feel so nostalgic~. Now I want some wonton noodle soup or wonton lo min. >.< There's this place called Lin Son Seng in Macau that I used to go to growing up. All of their noodles are very good, but I would get brisket or wonton the most. Either with regular egg noodles or the flat kind. Their home made spicy oil is probably the best I've ever had in my life. No offense to Lao Gan Ma, but freshly made spicy oil is just on a different level. I think the last time I went back, I found out that they actually started selling it in jars because it was so popular. Fragrant and spicy. It just has really good flavor!
