I was born in Malaysia, a country in the midst of a stew of several Asian nations: Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. It's a crossroad of culture and food. In my early childhood, I recall the rich aroma of freshly ground coffee and the savoury /salty taste of crisp yellow noodles fried with pork fat in a wok. Malaysian food is a wondrous mélange of Chinese, Thai and Indian cooking. A treasure of tastes.
Armed with a journalism degree from Carleton University, I went on to report for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in radio, TV and online. I was a regular web columnist for the CBC and have published articles about travel, food and dance in The Globe and Mail, Canadian Living, MovieEntertainment, Scarlett and Jasmine magazines as well as the NOW Toronto weekly. I was co-host on Food Network Canada's "The Great Canadian Food Show" (1st season). Now, I make documentaries! My first independent film was Twin Trek - about Bengali-Norwegian twin brothers who uncover a family secret when they voyage to Northern Norway. My primary passions are food, film, flamenco and faraway places. You can find out more on my website: www.junechua.com
