2010. When I played a scarface #Asian mafia boss lady on a horror film short production. Filmed at the old Hung Fat #kungfu club in Chinatown. Gentrification got their longtime, oldest kungfu association in BC, evicted a few years ago.

Gloria Tsoi, pictured with me, owns & runs the kung-fu club - passed down from ancestors. We've been friends since the 90s.

Monochrome medium shot. Two Asian women dominate the foreground, posed with crossed swords. The woman on the left, in casual wear, stands three-quarters to the camera. Me, on the right - shorter, and wearing a decorative chains & zippers jacket and pants. Both hold swords, positioned diagonally. Natural light streams in from a window behind them. The composition is slightly asymmetrical, with more space to the left. The tonal range is soft. The focus is sharp on the subjects' faces and swords, with the background slightly blurred

Buying things in cash from Chinatown grocers is quite a bit cheaper than buying from the online Asian grocer I use.

Something that costs $9.99 online is $8.50. I can also try different new restaurants as they open. Fave recent new Chinatown spot is Rice Roll Express which has good freshly made cheung fan. Saw a new takeout dimsum spot today that looks better than the one TikTok tells people to go to.

My Chinatown strategy is, if I see a large number of old Chinese aunties in line, I stand in it and get what they get.

It’s never let me down

I also prefer Chinatown to the west side Chinese grocers. It’s just more density of cool things to see.
