He’s passionate, informative and easy to understand. His calm yet funny demeanor is so enjoyable.

Lucas is a master of explaining the "WHY" with passion, conviction, and most of all extensive food knowledge. Love all his videos!!!!

I’m 61, 4th generation Chinese and Hawaiian ancestry. I’ve been making eggs all my life with success. Tried this HK style scrambled egg today and was totally converted. Excellent instructional video especially the addition of the slurry. Mahalo Lucas! 🤙🏼🥚

Watching him cook is like having a friend tell you thousand years old secrets to why food is what it is. He is so engaging, it's indecent to look away.

[EricsonHerbas]

Lucas Sin, my man-crush. Handsome, confident and articulate. I can watch him cook all day. Those hands😍

[catherineescobar]

Well I just made myself scrambled eggs with a cornstarch slurry and some cream (didn’t have any evaporated milk) and it has changed my scrambled-egg life forever. I can’t believe I was able to make them so good. Thank you do much for that little hint alone.

[chtobin]

I really appreciate the history and you taking the time to share the Cantonese language that most accurately describes the food or technique, rather than just translating it for westerners

[ghostgirl]

I love this man and want to eat everything he makes. He's charming, passionate, intelligent, and explains everything with such clarity and enthusiasm, each video is like the best class I ever took.

Lucas makes me crave HK cafe food like no tomorrow.

Also- I am so happy he shared his satay beef recipe. I love HK style satay beef - it's my litmus test for every new HK cafe I try.

[garrickwong]

Lucas really need to have more cooking shows like this. He brings to life nostalgia, history, flavor, culture, and experiences all through the love of food. Thank you!

[impendingfrog]

God this is fantastic. He explains the what and the why so clearly. He's a pleasure to watch, I want a whole channel of this man explaining cooking to me.

[dogoku]

I can totally agree on the fluffiness of HK style eggs. I used to live in Singapore and there was a HK style bakery near my place. My favourite thing they made was an egg, spam and mayo sandwich in a brioche bun. It was simply divine!

[pourquoipa]

Hong Konger here - just tried the scrambled egg and it's insanely good. Soooo silky, sooo fluffy. Definitely takes me back to those cha chaang tengs in HK. Gotta try the satay beef recipe next!

[phoenixko]

I am a Hongkonger, and this guy deserves a lot more views and likes. The satay beef and eggs are spot on ❤️

[ciganyweaverandherperiwink]

He's fascinating. A great educator, a terrific cultural ambassador and an inspired chef. Double thumbs up, what more could anybody want from a cooking tutorial?

[MomoaiMilk]

i love how much he loves this sandwich

[yajairaortega]

The way he talks about food, the way he touches/makes food, the way he describes making food is so poetic and hypnotic. I love it, I love Lucas.
Can we get "I love Lucas Sin" shirts going plz.

[Satans_lil_helper]

I'm an egg fanatic, so I'm making this for dinner. That starch emulsifier is genius!

[pigeonlegs]

I've only watched the beginning of the video so far, but I just wanted to say that I really appreciate how you subtly incorporated allergy-friendly language with the egg recipe, saying you could use "any kind of milk" or "potato starch" instead of corn starch. As someone who's allergic to both corn and dairy (among other things) that immediately stood out to me and hooked me for the rest of the video. It's a seemingly endless search to find allergy-friendly recipes, so I love it when creators include alternatives to make recipes inclusive for everyone.

Lucas your another one of my favs with your excitement for cooking. I love your sharing of culture & recipes/techniques with us, your amazing !
