Guo Shiyong, Chen Ziqian, and Ye Zisong (Editor-in-Chief of "SAMPLE") are extremely food-conscious! As a dietary journal, this book comes from the author's memories, life and emotions on the one hand, and is based on rich knowledge and reading experience on the other. Zhiyin has access to Chinese and foreign literature and popular culture, from Shi Naian, Lu Xun to Zhang Ailing, from Kafka, Hemingway to Murakami Haruki, from Sherlock Holmes, mobile police to Yu Chuanxue, and recipes from different ages and countries are readily available. From the food in the mouth to the books I have read, reconstruct the human colors and fragrances based on the clues between the lines. Eat and read, pull each other, and finally merge into one. ──Guo Shiyong (Hong Kong scholar and writer) Zhiyin's brushwork is agile, like a fish in the sea of knowledge, and a strange metaphor will go to the world. "The Years of Wonton" writes about the homesickness of poets from Hong Kong. From Wonton to the Pearl of the Orient, it is a magical brush: "Wonton is oblate, its shape is asymmetrical, and its surface is uneven and wrinkled. It is a somewhat dry Oriental Pearls." The Oriental Pearl has long been an old metaphor for moldy, but with the descriptions of "asymmetrical," "uneven, wrinkled," and even "dry", it will wash away the beautiful image. ──Chen Ziqian (Hong Kong scholar and writer) What "Shizi Dining Table" writes is often homely scenes and personal trivial matters, from which various literary and film and television works are incorporated. The food scenes in the text are also filled in the contrast room, turning into pages of recipes, containing the desire for survival, the taste of the times, and the memories of the senses. ──Ye Zisong (Editor-in-Chief of "SAMPLE" Magazine) About the Author Zou Zhiyin Doctor of Philosophy from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, currently an assistant professor in the Chinese Department of the Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, engaged in research on Hong Kong topography, newspapers and food literature.
