S1 Ep5: Hate crime on East and South East (ESEA) community

09/27/20 • 36 min

I received my first hate messages online for being in an interracial relationship. I reported this to Instagram and to the police who have done nothing about it and advised me to block/ignore the user. Out of frustration and disappointment, I decided to change my podcast schedule around and speak about what had happened in this episode. Hate crime on ESEA has increased by 300% in the UK since the coronavirus and we need to speak out about it and encourage organisations such as Facebook (who own Instagram), the police and the government to make changes. Please check out these pages if you want more information and/or would like to support the ESEA community. Thanks for tuning in :))

S1 Ep6: Dumpling Shack boss lady Yee, talks about her dumplings

🥟 I'm delighted to introduce fellow BBC Yee onto this episode. Co-Founder of one of the best places to eat dumplings... DUMPLING SHACK. I'm such a fan girl and I still can't believe I managed to speak with Yee. Dumpling Shack started off their street food stall in Broadway Market in 2014 selling pan fried dumplings (aka shengjianbaos) and now they're one of the most successful Chinese food stalls in East London. I still remember the soup bursting with flavour in my mouth with my first bite 🤤. In this episode, we talk about our time working with our parents at the Chinese takeaway, whether Yee would open a Chinese bakery shop in East London 🤔, how she met her husband John (Boss man) and their Chinese wedding ceremony (covid style). If you're in London, go and check out Dumpling Shack (and their cute bro Fen Noodles) at Spitalfields Market and the new Dumpling Shack in South Quay.
