Do you guys even know how foie gras are farmed? You probably don't want to eat them if you know how cruely the animals are treated.

呢個世界食咩都最好唔好諗D食物係點嚟啦。

你食快餐唔好諗D牛肉點黎﹐你食雞唔好諗D雞未死係咩樣﹐你食海鮮唔好諗D水有咩菌。出去食飯千祈唔好入廚房。

It's hard after reading "In Defense of Food", "The Omnivore's Dilemma", "The 100-Mile Diet"...etc
These books are more on the health side (not much about animal rights). But I really try to avoid fast food, pre-package and pre-process food as much as I can. Buying local food if possible.

Food value in terms of portion/taste/price is not going to be that high, esp considering the fact that Chinese people want CHEAP Chinese food.

I like the environment. Gives a relatively unqiue and more modern experience to Chinese food. I don't like their fushion dishes or their 'western' dishes. But do appreciate the slight twist they sometimes give to re-interpret Chinese dishes, or at least put it in a different environment.

This is not like Wild Rice where it becomes a westerened/fushioned Chinese food. THese are still proper regular Chinese dishes. Smaller portion, not bad in taste, slightly high price but a relatively unique take on Chinese food, at least unique in the lower mainland. Don't expect wonders tho, this is just a twist so you don't have to suffer thru the same 海鮮酒家 experience again and again and again.

Just my stupid opinion... I really just eat and call it a day so....
