There is a lot of food culture that goes on in the home and in the community in non-traditional ways. Food is a lot more than restaurants.

I have more to say as a writer than from behind a wok.

But what I'm very interested in, whether it's writing, whether it's hosting a show, whether it's cooking food, I'm just into the discussions of identity, culture and the politics of culture.

Sundays are for Dim Sum. While the rest of America goes to church, Sunday School, or NFL games, you can find Chinese people eating Cantonese food.

I like a walking culture; I need to be in a city where you can walk everywhere.

Black culture has been a huge influence in my life.
