\"SERVED
\nAttended a preview screening of two new Channel U productions, where the average age of the fans was 16. I said, “Woah, we double-handedly…”<\/p>\n

Huccalily interrupted, “It’s you single-handedly, not me…”<\/p>\n

“WE<\/strong> double-handedly increase the average age in this room.” Then Bryan Wong walked on stage. PHEW. Hey Bryan, I grew up watching you on TV… isn’t a compliment anymore?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\nIs it a sign of old age when Huccalily and I got excited over Chew Chor Meng; thought the sexiest guy on stage was Zhu Hou Ren; and didn’t know the 4 young actors’ names on the left?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"AA Taste of History<\/em>\u00a0\u5bfb\u5473\u5730\u56fe<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Of the two shows, I prefer A Taste of History<\/em>, hosted by Bryan Wong (photo taken from Channel U Facebook<\/a>). You can say, old ginger is spicier (\u59dc\u8fd8\u662f\u8001\u7684\u8fa3).<\/p>\n

A Taste of History<\/em> is an important and nostalgic documentary that traces the history of dialect groups in Singapore through culinary history and neighborhoods. The first episode, which we saw, is on Katong.<\/p>\n

Not only is this documentary important in times of rapid development, the cinematography is first class. The way the camera zooms in on an uncle frying\u00a0hokkien mee<\/em>: you see strands of lard-coated noodle somersaulting in the wok, absorbing the essence. When I saw this scene, I was, HULK HUNGRY, SERVE HULK DINNER NOW. To be able to taste the food through images, this is some awesome camerawork. Thank you for preserving a part of Singapore’s heritage.<\/p>\n

A Taste of History<\/em> airs from 7 Jan to 25 Mar, every Tue, 8.30-9pm, on Channel U.<\/strong><\/p>\n
