hzrt8w (Ah Leung) Steps Down


Chris Amirault

Recommended Posts

As we announced here, circumstances have forced hzrt8w (W.K. Leung -- or as he is known on eG Forums, Ah Leung) to step down from his role as an eGullet Society specialist after two years of volunteer service. Please share your thoughts on his tenure here.

I personally don't know where to begin, since Ah Leung has contributed mightily to eG Forums and to my own dinner table over the last two years. I've now got better shaoxing, a new beer snack, and a host of remarkable home options from his remarkable Chinese food pictorials, a highlight of eG Forums.

We wish you well, Ah Leung, and thank you for your service!

While I've only lurked on the Chinese cuisine forum, I have so thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated Ah Leung's pictorials -- and have made many a delicious dinner based on them! Just the other night I made this dish, which far surpassed anything I can get from the local Chinese restaurant. So I want to take this opportunity to thank Ah Leung for sharing his recipes, knowledge and experiences. I hope you are able to continue in some capacity. Thank you!!! :wub:

Ah Leung,

I have always enjoyed your posts (and great pictures) in the California forum. Your expertise on Chinese cuisine has provided great learning experiences for the members here. I hope you will still post when you have a chance, answer questions and show us more of those great photos.

Best regards,

Pam

Nooooo! Ah Leung’s helpful suggestions and quirky sense of humor have helped make the China and Chinese Cuisine forum one of my favorite places to hang out. Even though I prefer chile-laden dishes from Sichuan and Hunan, Ah Leung’s pictorials inspired me to learn more about Chinese food and cooking methods. Our meals have benefited greatly from his generous spirit.

I hope that better circumstances will soon allow Ah Leung to resume his valued contributions.

Ah Leung, I have such admiration for your fantastic work on the pictorials, and also your foodblog, which was one of the best among a large number of great ones. I wish you luck and success in all that you do! You deserve it! :smile:

Ah Leung, I'm so sad to see you go. I have learned so much from you, and wish you the best of luck. I'm going to miss your wisdom and humor.

My mom asked me the other day if I knew how to make Ma Po Tofu, and thanks to you, I was able to tell her!

Thanks for all your contributions to the eGullet community.

Ah Leung, I echo others' sentiments in thanking you for your awesome volunteer work here, particularly the pictorials, while feeling a sense of dismay that you won't be as involved with the forum as before. I wish you well in your future endeavors, and hope you'll continue to contribute to eGullet as a "layperson." :biggrin:

OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Caro will be inconsolable. She (and we all at our house) is a devoted fan and follower, turning out those heavenly-scented and delectably delicious dishes over and over, with the wonderful tutorials and pictures that make every step easy to follow.

We all hope that your circumstances will improve heartily soon, and you will take your place again as our own favorite Teacher and Helper, as we wend our way through all those lovely dishes.

Thank you, thank you. We'll think of you every time the enticing scent of sizzling ginger and garlic wafts through the house. Ma Po Tofu is now one of our favorite breakfasts. :wub:

All our best,

rachel
