Hong Kong chef-rapper whose hip-hop cooking videos lit up Instagram on the power of food
'Some people actually think I'm a legit chef. I'm definitely not,' Chef West says with a laugh. 'All I am is a home cook.'

Things started happening for West on February 29, 2024, when he uploaded a video of himself making chicken with garlic and spring onion oil while rapping about it in Cantonese with a sprinkling of English. At the time of writing, the video has racked up more than 1.5 million views and over 56,800 likes.

Oreo releases all-new space-inspired sandwich cookies in Hong Kong
In honour of their 75th anniversary, Oreo is reaching for the stars – literally. The snack brand collaborated with Sent into Space to launch their signature biscuits into outer space, and posted a video on its YouTube channel, showing a custom spacecraft that took the iconic biscuits into the stratosphere and fired them towards the Milky Way. Additionally, the brand is introducing biscuits with a brand new Spaceburst filling – flavoured with assorted fruit and a cooling sensation. Along with the cosmic cream filling, Oreo is repackaging their fan-favourite flavours – vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry – into brand new Space Dunk packaging. Each Space Dunk biscuit comes in five galactic-themed embossments of different rarities, such as a rocket, a helmet, a telescope, a star gaze, and a shooting star – the rarest out of the five. Hongkongers can now get their hands on the Spaceburst-flavoured Oreos at merchants like ParknShop, Wellcome, Mannings, 7-Eleven, Circle K, and select online stores. Plus, customers who purchase two or more packs of the newly launched biscuits at Circle K, ParknShop's website, and 7-Eleven can redeem exclusive limited-edition galactic goodies. What's more, you can experience dunking your sandwich biscuits into the Milky Way with Oreo's new interactive game from now until June 19. Simply get yourself a pack of Space Dunk biscuits and visit the game's website to play for a chance to win Oreo Space Dunk merch – you'll earn bonus points if you snap a photo of a shooting star-embossed biscuit!
