Dad is a hell of a chef. He doesn't skip a step and very detailed. I'm sure the customers miss his dishes.

[@SumBodyArtLive]

The hands of Steel from Daddy Lau… it reminds me of my Dad, Opa Chan. Our family had a Chinese Restaurant in Australia for 20 years. And Dad was the chef, mum was the manager at the front with the customers. The boss duo, and my Dad also had Hands of Steel from years of Cooking like a boss in the kitchen, he also had sandpaper hands in which we used to joke about together. But we both know that his hands are not only powerful and has many battle scars so to speak. They have raised 4 wonderful daughters. And we are called 四千金, the 4 thousand gold or 4 flowers of the 4 seasons for our parents. Thanks for your videos and sharing your food of love, and your story and your voice resonates with so many of us. When I see Daddy Lau cook, I think of my Dad or even my grandfather a lot. As our family is separated in 3 countries, I am in Germany with my new born baby and little girl. Dad is in Australia and Grandma is in Hong Kong. Our family loves your videos as everyone in our family can relate to your voice and recipes. And it brings comfort and love as I cook your recipes, I can taste our family’s history as well. And to now share the recipes with my kids now in Germany. Stay healthy and well Lau Family. Thank you! 🫂💟🌌🤱🏻🌙🌅🌏🍚🥟🍜 Diana @SumBodyArt

Thank you so much for the love and for sharing your stories!! We are so grateful to have you in our community and to share with you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lisamessiana1032]

What an amazing recipe 🌟 Very labor intensive. Lots of steps. But as usual, Daddy Lau makes it easy by taking us through each step and explaining everything, so we're not afraid to try!😊 Then, watching the family enjoy the meal and listening to everyone's input, helps make it all come together 👏 Thank you Lau Family ❣️🙏

[@MadeWithLau]

Awwww thank you for the love! We really appreciate that!

[@lizchoi2012]

Can you do a tour of your garden please? I like that your dad grows lots of plants and spices that can be used in Chinese dishes! :D

[@CalgaryToothDoc]

When I was in university, I spent one summer working in my uncle's chinese restaurant in Lake Tahoe. It was 3.5 months of my uncle and cousins yelling at me, but it was worth it - I learned how to cook chinese food and feed myself through university and my bachelor years. I also found out how much hard work it is to work in the kitchen of a busy restaurant! That little restaurant (Ming's in South Lake Tahoe) put my 5 cousins through university.

[@sherrysoong94]

My family can't get enough of these. I always spray the lotus leaves w/ olive oil to get all the rice/fillings to release. I make dozens and keep them in the freezer :) Making these is the Asian equivalent to Hispanic families making tamales! Everyone pitches in!

[@MadeWithLau]

So good!!!

[@theasiankiz2437]

I made this lo mai gai an hour ago! But I use half egg with egg white and I don't have lotus leaves and so I assembled every portion in a small bowl and wrap it with aluminium foil and steam it. Still taste great !!! My dad loved it so much!!! Thanks Chef!!

[@void.reality]

Hi Randy from Sydney, Australia. I've just discovered your channel and have been bingeing your videos ever since. Your dad is amazing with how he explains and simplifies the recipes, and his knife and cooking techniques are inspiring. I also love how your mom always has something valuable to add. I love learning about and cooking Chinese and particularly Cantonese food, and your channel is helping me learn more. But what I love the best is when your family sits around the table eating the meal, answering questions, and discussing the details. I feel like I'm sitting at the table with you. This is what food is about - sharing and enjoying with people you love. Give your dad (and mom!) a big hug from me.

[@websherpa]

Fantastic! As a Caucasian originally from Vancouver B.C., I’ve been eating, learning and cooking authentic Chinese food (and Dim Sum) since the late 1970’s, but back then it was so hard to find Cantonese recipes, much was word of mouth or written only in Chinese (with lots of assumptions made). Years later there has been an explosion of English cookbooks, but each has, of course, their own regional bent. Lo Mai Gai (although we tend to get it mostly with ground pork) is one of my favourites but also one that I have only ever tried to make one time before with limited success. Fortuitously I had picked up some lotus leaf recently, intent on trying again… and lo and behold I am so lucky to have found this video out of the blue! I’ve always shied away from video as a learning method because it’s often haphazard. Your Dad’s gentle teaching, the excellent videography and subtitles, the clear instructions (and for some reason the range of recipes completely suits my tastes and experience) make yours the most excellent resource collection I have come across to date. Thank you! (I laughed when I saw your Dad clean the rice three times. I was taught that by a partner three decades ago as the superstitious key to success cooking rice and it’s stuck with me ever since, and I share it with anyone who cares to watch me cook! Lol)

[@MulYeungCooking]

Very yummy Daddy Lau! I remember when my grandmother used to make this for us back in the village.

[@rebeccahendricks7250]

Have made 5 packets (miscounted my presoaked leaves) and am keeping them cool and moist for a bit to steam up at dinner time. So exciting! I did salted yolks in soy, mirin, ginger, and seaweed and added a teaspoon of that "jam" to each. Didn't have any char sui but used plenty of mushrooms and added some dry baby shrimp after soaking! Got lotus leaves online (have used banana leaves in the past and it's much more difficult!). Hugs to your Dad, it was lovely to watch and listen to him at work. I grew up in Chinatown in Toronto (downtown) and used to get these from street vendors. I miss that.

[@brianng8350]

Yes, Randy tries segment! Love that you are working with your dad (yes, all these videos are you both teaming up), but literally -working hand to hand to wrap the sticky rice chicken! It's a beautiful sight. And when your dad said "good" and even high fiving you... hahaha... You don't see that much in traditional Chinese families. Now you have these on film and can cherish them!

[@wendyleung8396]

It is always a father's pride to pass his knowledge to his son...just like a kungfu master passing on techniques to his student. Thank you Chef Lau for sharing his knowledge on the favorite cantonese cuisine. Although watching how he prepared and cooked the meals -it looks hard and so most probably i wont try my hand at all because i am not too savvy with wok and spatula...Randy enjoy these precious moments because these will give you treasured memories -of course you have the videos to look back to...Both of the Laus are indeed blessed to share and have fun along the way...Appreciate all the secrets of cooking tasty cantonese cuisine in the comfort of our homes.

Hi Lau family, that’s my sons favorite sticky rice dish when we have dim sum. I’m with auntie, my favorite is joong. I used to help my mom make joong when I was younger. It’s a lot of work preparing. Now I buy my at the market or restaurant. 😀

[@ChopChopsBabyHuey]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. Your dad has a treasure trove of knowledge... I love it. I now know the name of my favorite dim sum dish... Lo Mai Gai. Usually the ladies with the dim sum cart will ask if I want Mochi Rice, so I always call it mochi rice. Anyway that is what they call it here in Hawaii for non Chinese speaking folks. I like your dad's version of lo mai gai (mochi rice) because it's hardier. The lo mai gai I get at the dim sum restaurants here are less hardy but the favor is still delicious. Thank you again for an excellent video.🤙🤙🤙

[@sacredground7767]
