COLUMNS

 COLUMNIST: Polo (Ronault L.S. Catalani) | Dmae Roberts |

 

My Turn

by Wayne Chan

2023

What to do when faced with fondue |

A tall tale told at Yappy Hour |

An amazing trip with a number of money-saving caveats |

The gift with the greatest reward |

The dreaded "follow-up question" |

To pho or not to pho, that is the question |

Everything Everywhere All at Once and into the future |

A word about that Chinese balloon |

The UMCA dilemma |

First of all, I don’t even like carrots |

It’s the sticky rice dilemma

 

2022

When a nose is not a nose |

The United Federation of Asian Perfect-ness |

The tale of travelling tails |

A difficult pill to swallow |

Summer heat brings burning feet |

Grandpa – The matchmaker in heaven |

A time to laugh, but no, not today |

A case of curious stares |

They should have called it the "Powernap Express" |

A winter wonderland without the winter |

I would hate to be a hamster in Hong Kong right now

 

2021

Defund "Sesame Street!" |

Li Ziqi — Martha Stewart on steroids |

But why would an ostrich cough up a fur ball? |

To jab or not to jab. That is the question |

The content of their character indeed

 

2020

The hottest restaurant in town — but not in a good way |

A clear enough mind to know I was insulted

 

2019

A golden friendship |

A childhood memory I’d rather forget |

Now that’s what you call being an entrepreneur |

Keeping tabs on our tabs |

Dramatic reading of an uneventful life  |

Give me liberty or give me beef satay!

 

2018

A tycoon’s to-do list |

My grown-up, confounding, exasperating, exhilarating blessing of a son |

Fusion and fried rice — a match made in heaven |

The master chef and the case of the missing pasta |

File this story under too much of a good thing |

The perfect, much too perfect, Christmas tree |

 

2017

If someone could come up with a matzo-ball dim-sum restaurant, we’d all be set |

A diet fit for a frog |

There is such a thing as MSG withdrawal |

Blessed are the donuts |

Roses are red … and they’d better be |

Not enough time for meditation

 

2016

An electrifying fair |

The mundane Olympics |

A thwacking is worth a thousand words |

Ready for the sitting-still-in-a-lounge-chair challenge |

Paul Trudeau never had it so good |

The holiday for those who love time travel

 | The proverb non sequitur
