Mothers — with all their earnest, loving intentions — can often be entertaining, and their advice can be an interesting mix of serious, silly, insightful and mind-boggling (sometimes all rolled up into one zinger you can’t wait to share with your friends). In honor of Mother’s Day, we’ve asked fellow Asian American writers and artists to share the funniest advice they’ve ever gotten from their mothers.

Culinary delights are sure things to be celebrated during Asian Pacific-American Heritage Month, and Bay Area foodies rejoiced at the opportunity to learn more about the art of Asian cooking (And satisfy their tastebuds too!) from a local celebrity chef.
As part of Macy’s series of Asian Pacific-American Heritage Month events, the Union Square store in San Francisco welcomed Michelin Star chef James Syhabout to the Cellar Kitchen on May 5th for a cooking demonstration and tasting. A Thailand native who grew up in Oakland, CA, he is the chef and owner of Commis Restaurant and proprietor of Hawker Fare Restaurant, which are also both located in Oakland. Hawker Fare is a Southeast Asian street food joint that Syhabout brought a piece of to his audience, by cooking one of their signature dishes Khao Mun Gai, or Thai-style chicken and rice.

Did I also mention that all of us at Audrey Magazine are HUGE fans of Line and Dot? So you can only imagine just how EXCITED we are for this piece of news!
The Asian American/LA-based fashion brand will be having their one day only (!!) sample sale on at their warehouse on May 19th, from 10am -4pm! Price points will be marked at $10, $15, and $20 (discounted at least 50% off MSRP!). Not to mention, there will be food and snacks – you know, to replenish you as you search for some Line and Dot goodies!
Don’t walk, RUN and GET THERE EARLY, if you want the best selection!
