#Opinion by Allan Au Ka-lun 區家麟｜"You claim to lead Hong Kong people into a new era, but you invoke the weapon of the most disdainful colonial era, as you call it, to rule Hong Kong. It is so contradicting and hypocritical, inciting hatred, contempt, disgust, hostility, and rebelliousness. Your sheer existence is incitement."

"你們妄言帶領香港人進入新時代，卻動用自己口裏最不屑的殖民統治武器，奮力自摑、腥臭虛偽，引發憎恨、藐視、惡感、敵意、離叛。你們的存在就是煽動。"

I’m a person who is all about food so I’ve tried so many places including restaurants, street vendors, street stalls around Hanoi. But there’s this one particular place that I’ve been to has a controversial reputation for itself but I am a hundred percent sure that this place offered very poor services.

People make a name for it which is “cussing noodles” and here’s why. The cussing noodles eatery is located on a busy street in the central area of Hanoi, where the owner serves spicy pig knuckle with rice noodles everyday. The owner also the chef is a middle-aged lady with a cantankerous demeanour. I remember when I stepped in the to order, I saw the lady yelling at a customer who seemed a bit indecisive about what to order and when she asked for ground pork added to her portion, she immediately got scolded at: “If you like ground pork, go to the market, they’ve lots of it.” Then, she paid the poor customer a disdainful look. Fortunately, when it was my turn to order, I made it all the way through without being yelled at. But the constant yelling and cursing kept going later on.

Although the noodles were actually good and some people might think that rudeness might strangely become this stall’s selling point, I find it extremely hard to tolerate the harsh words of the restaurant owner to enjoy the dish. I have no idea why people accept the abuse only to be able to taste the dish, while they should have demanded proper service. I believe she has ruined the friendly and cultured image of the Vietnamese capital. I think it’s time to stop encouraging these kinds of behavior.

Các bạn cùng học nha 😍

Vision cannot be seen,
For it is highly disdainful.
Nor it can be spoken,
For it'd be accused accidental.
It flows but may never forced,
For the bad become worse.
