Corn bisquits
Saw this shop in Beijing. The yellow cakes are made from corn and a Hebei delicacy.
I tried it but could not even swallow a single bite.

Dochen Bonemax
I recently got this product approved in Malaysia.
The omnipotent vitamin
Vitamin K has been known as the coagulation vitamin, because of its role in the blood-clotting process. However, research over the last few decades has shown that the role of K Vitamins – and natural Vitamin K2, the menaquinones, in particular – has been greatly expanded. Of note, K Vitamins activity outside the liver is required for calcium utilization, the key factor in maintaining both bone and cardiovascular health.
Vitamin K2 helps to activate vitamin K-dependent proteins responsible for healthy tissues. In bone, it activates osteocalcin, a protein required to bind calcium to the mineral matrix, thus strengthening the skeleton. In circulation, Vitamin K2 participates in carboxylation of Matrix Gla Protein (MGP), the most potent inhibitor of arterial calcification known, lowering the risk of vascular damage.
As the scope of research expands other new functions, crucial to our wellbeing, are now emerging. The latest studies have not only confirmed Vitamin K2’s positive function towards osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases, but also revealed new and exciting applications, including the activity of vitamin K and Alzheimer's disease, a variety of cancers, the incidence and severity of varicose veins, skin aging and others.

Papaya Dessert in Guangzhou
This is a beautiful papaya dessert.
The natural sugar from the papaya will simmer into the seaweed soup you see within the papaya.

Abacus beads for lunch
This is my favorite Hakka (da bu)dish. It is called abacus beads coz' it looks like the abacus beads that the Chinese used as a calculator.
A dough is made from yam and starch, then beads of it is pressed out and boiled in water until it floats in the water signifying it is cooked.
Then it is fried with ha mai (small shrimps), mushrooms, pork pieces and cuttlefish.
Really Yummy! I only get to eat this delicacy during Chinese New Year!

Small family dinner
Dad and mum enjoying their dinner, while the waitress pours wine into my glass.
This wine has won many awards and was given by my friend Buen. I had kept it for special occasions.
The casing for the wine.
The wine is really great and the scent even goes to the nose which does not happen with inferior wine.
