I was invited by the most popular show in Hong Kong.
It invited only the most famous chefs in town.
I was the only one female chef among 25 episodes.
The show gave the titles to all male chefs "Celebrity Chef" whereas it gave me a title "Chef of a Private Kitchen".
In Hong Kong, female usually cooked at home and not too many professional female chef.
I asked "Why a female chef cannot be a Celebrity Chef"...
Of course, the show gave me a title "Celebrity Chef" finally.
The question is WHY I HAD TO ASK..
As a female chef, I am at least as hardworking as the other male chef! I am a professional as well.
***
Therefore, I created a cuisine for the show and named "Phoenix Dances in the Ninth Heaven"
In Chinese Culture, Phoenix represents Female.
Female can be outstanding professional. no question asked.
