BLOG: Confession of a bone-eating maniac

October 27, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

BLOG: To diet or not to diet — Part 1

July 28, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly People often say I look fit. Beneath the surface lies the secret of my struggles with maintaining a steady weight.

July 7, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly Many Chinese Seattleites visit British Columbia, Canada in search of great Chinese food, even though it’s a three-hour drive.

June 16, 2016 By Northwest Asian Weekly

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly   Dear Fathers, On this coming Father’s Day, I suddenly realized I have no memories of Father’s Day even though I had two fathers. How ironic! Now that you’re both gone from this world, I wonder what it would have been like if I could have just one Father’s […]
