James in for the Thursday Brew -our LIVE MUSIC SUMMER SERIES continues with a replay of a fabulous session with Cheung Chau-based singer/songwriter NICK FLORENT at 12.30pm. Before that we check the latest music releases from Hong Kong artists with MARK RAWSON. Then after the One O'Clock news Chef JASON BLACK discusses the differences between eating a cuisine in the “original” country, vs eating that cuisine somewhere “overseas”. Why does it taste different, why is it actually different… how do dishes get “adapted” to fit local taste… how and why food became ‘fusion'... Plus the best in music through until 2pm.
