What's New?
23rd August
Well time has flown and lots has happened with my life.
I am now a
proud father and as such site updates have been impacted I'm afraid!
CantoDict is still going strong though and I hope to find time for some useful updates soon.
On a less positive note, we are currently undergoing a spam attack, so please bear with us while we
try and deal with this.

This video explores how Chinatown was born, how it survived, and why it still stands today — a city within a city where history, culture, and resilience continue to collide.

[+-]When Socialist-Democrats decriminalized theft in California, thieves were embolden to steal more things causing many retailers to leave California. When California became a sanctuary state, illegal migrants from all over were incentivized to go to California and exploit social welfare and health programs that are bankrupting the state so the state needs to increase taxes to pay for people who aren't legally allowed to work but are taken care of by state programs that should take care of our homeless people first. If the "Stop Nick Shirley Act" is passed, that will embolden more criminals to set up shop in California and commit more fraud against the Federal government. This is how the Democratic party evolved into a socialist party and then into a communist party. Anyone who escaped Red China can see through how the Democratic party has been hijacked by socialist communists.

The "Stop Nick Shirley Act" literally sounds like it was authored by the CCP. Mr. President, please send your federal auditors to investigate all the politicians pushing to pass this legislation especially our state attorney general and his wife. Corruption and protecting criminals now defines the Democratic Party.

Exposing California's corrupt "Stop Nick Shirley Act", instead of going after the fraudsters California is now going after the people exposing the fraud.

"...In the two months leading up to the competition, Li's coaching team worked closely with a Shaolin martial arts master to study traditional Mantis Fist techniques, integrating its explosive power and fluidity into breaking choreography.
“We call it tracing the roots,” Lai said. “Breaking in the 1980s was heavily influenced by kung fu movies. Now we're bringing authentic Chinese culture back to the world stage.”

On this visit, a few viewers mentioned about a place that serves up New York Chinatown's most famous Pork Chop on Rice. It's nothing fancy but it is one of the most loved dishes there; and having tried it, I can see why. Tender pork chops, luscious sauce and perfectly cooked rice...and all this for $8.

On March 27th, a driver crashed into the front of New Lun Ting Cafe in SF Chinatown, popularly known as "Pork Chop House", destroying half of the storefront. Now, the restaurant remains closed until repairs can be made and city inspectors deem it safe to open again.
This fundraiser goes toward repairs to the shop and for lost wages while the restaurant remains closed during reconstruction.

[+-]Preserving cultural heritage should also mean
presenting these dishes by their official Cantonese names instead of in Mandarin.

Guangzhou authorities on Wednesday released new regulations on morning tea heritage protection, effective on May 1, which mandate that operators must explicitly indicate whether their dim sum dishes are made using traditional on-site methods or through non-traditional means.
The mainland Chinese legislation also stipulates a strict 24-hour freshness window from production to consumption for traditionally made items to preserve the intangible cultural heritage.

Online sentiments reflect deep dismay over Chinatown's cultural erosion, as mainland Chinese businesses willing to pay inflated rents steadily displace local heritage and food.

The atmosphere buzzes with energy: red-and-gold arches frame the entrance, street vendors call out in Cantonese and Japanese, and the air carries scents of sizzling pork buns and jasmine tea from nearby stalls, creating a lively, welcoming vibe under strings of lanterns that glow even by day. Cobblestone paths lined with cherry trees in spring add a poetic touch, while crowds of locals and tourists mingle harmoniously, evoking the feel of a perpetual festival.
