What is Hong Kong's Red Hot Chef cooking show, inspired by Culinary Class Wars?
Last year's Korean Netflix show Culinary Class Wars helped fuel a surge of interest in reality cooking competitions, as well as the chefs who star in them. Riding that wave of popularity is chef Anh Sung-jae of Seoul-based restaurant Mosu , which held three Michelin stars before its relocation earlier this year. Ahn, one of two judges on Culinary Class Wars , has partnered with HSBC to create a new, strikingly similar contest set in Hong Kong. Red Hot Chef, a three-episode series, dropped its first episode on Hong Kong TV channel TVB Jade on July 19. The remaining two are set to air on July 26 and August 2. The competition features eight Hong Kong chefs, chosen from over a hundred applicants, fighting for the grand prize: a restaurant marketing package worth HK$1 million (US$127,000).

Who is Peter Lai? Renowned Hong Kong lyricist is trending on Chinese social media
Renowned Hong Kong lyricist Peter Lai Bei-dak is trending on Chinese social media platform Weibo after he disclosed that he helped his 37-year-old son – with whom he has a strained relationship – pay off credit card debt worth hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. Advertisement Many comments shared on Weibo expressed empathy for the 75-year-old single father, with many users lamenting his situation. Lai also shared with local media platform HK01 that he is currently looking for a soulmate, which sparked fevered discussion in both Hong Kong and mainland China. He seemed unfazed by the reaction and claimed that if Hong Kong singer and actor Lee Lung-kay could find love at the age of 74, why couldn't he? Renowned for crafting the lyrics for classic songs in Hong Kong including 'Monica' (sung by Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing) and 'Drifter's Song' (sung by Sam Hui Koon-kit), the outspoken Lai has also long been familiar to mainland audiences thanks to his role as a comedic private tutor in Stephen Chow Sing-chi's 1993 movie Flirting Scholar. Although his fame peaked during the 1970s and '80s, his lyrics continue to resonate deeply among Chinese pop-culture circles.
