This episode invites audiences to step into the slow-paced world of Spanish culinary culture. Starting with morning favorites like the Spanish potato omelette (Tortilla de Patatas) and crispy churros, the show explores the relaxed philosophy behind Spain's traditional five-meal-a-day lifestyle. We get an up-close look at the exquisite knife skills of a professional Spanish ham carver (Cortador de Jamón), learning the secrets behind ham grading, artistic plating, and tasting techniques. We then join the chefs to uncover the rich history of tapas, as well as the cherished social etiquette of sobremesa—the art of lingering around the table for conversation long after the meal is finished. Through food, the host bridges the fast-paced rhythm of Hong Kong with the unhurried spirit of Spain, uncovering the cultural stories of passion, authenticity, and sharing that bring people together.

Dr. Lee Shau Kee, with extraordinary wisdom and a keen business eye, successfully founded a real-estate-centered enterprise. Dr. Lee manages his wealth through the “principle of gathering and dispersing,” and upholds the philosophy of “one must excel in both earning and giving.” He channeled his wealth into society and the country: building a hospital, donating to schools, and establishing scholarships—providing opportunities for citizens and young people. At the same time, he also looks toward the Chinese Mainland—through the Hong Kong Pei Hua Education Foundation, he has long helped the nation cultivate professional talent. His impact reaches across the Chinese Mainland; his efforts transform into hope, and his legacy continues on with a spirit of enduring life and renewal.
