Sad SunnyGale is gone

 Kind of sad that Sunny Kam has gone :( ...Sunny was known here as SunnyGale and he posted comments quite frequently. Check out on the comment space back as far as 2022. Don't know why he did not tell us he was sick. I supposed he preferred to go w/o fanfare...your thoughts please.

Sunny Kam and Hiyashi chuka

 

 

This hiyashi chuka, a cold noodle dish which the Japanese eats during the hot summer. This dish brings back memory of Sunny Kam who passed away recently.

It was 1988 when Sunny who was a cs then that I flew with him to Fuk. We had a few days in Fuk. 

One afternoon we ordered hiyashi chuka for lunch. When our orders arrived, Sunny was shocked to find the noodles were cold. He called the waitress and complained that the noodles were cold. Little did we realised that the dish was supposed to be cold. There was a commotion as we could not speak Japanese and the waitress could not speak English. Sunny was angry and demanded the staff replaced the cold noodles with something hot. Again due to both parties unable to understand each other there was chaos. Some customers tried to help but to no avail. To the Japanese there was nothing wrong with the cold noodles but to Sunny noodles should not be served or eaten cold.

After much frustration, we left the restaurant. Later we found out that there was a misunderstamding.
