Memoirs of Food: Angela Hui & Candice Chung

Age restriction notice: 12+ only

Description

Join authors Angela Hui (Takeaway) and Candice Chung (Chinese Parents Don’t Say I Love You) for a conversation exploring the deep ties between food, memory, and identity.  

Hui reflects on growing up in a Chinese takeaway in rural Wales, while Chung explores reconnecting with her estranged parents through shared meals. Both memoirs reveal how food becomes a powerful language of love, heritage, and belonging—especially in families shaped by migration and silence.  

This event offers a moving exploration of how what we eat, cook, and share can tell the stories we struggle to say aloud.
