I have to admit that when I first heard about Fresh Off the Boat becoming a television series on ABC, I wanted to boycott the show. I had seen the commercials for it and the acting sometimes made me cringe, but it wasn’t until Kevin told me that he was entirely caught up on the series that I thought it deserved a shot. How quickly I changed my tune…

I was afraid that by others watching the show that Asian Americans would be faced with those confirmations about our stereotypes or that everyone would immediately assume that my childhood was exactly like Eddie’s which was going to be portrayed negatively. In fact, my childhood and my brother’s was a lot like Eddie’s and it wasn’t portrayed negatively. I am now a fan of the show and I think it does something great for Asian Americans. It gives us something to relate to because I can guarantee you growing up, I never felt like anyone could really relate to me in this sense.

Baohaus: Where Food and Hip Hop Collide


When opening up their second restaurant Baohaus on 14th Street and 2nd Ave in New York, owners Eddie Huang and Evan Huang enlisted the help of illustrator and artist Sophia Chang to help spice up the presentations of their menu items. Inside the restaurant you will find Baohaus menu items accompanied by some famous hip hop lyrics and her own foodie-inspired illustrations. Why are these so cool?! I really wish I could own a piece myself.
