madmouth commented on the word colonial whiteness
there are sections of Hong Kong still inhabited largely by aristocratic (or rich) Westerners--cozy, dozy, expensive beachside outskirts.
it was my first experience with vestigial colonialism, and the air was thick with it. the mere restaurant names felt (coming out of the clatter of Hong Kong streets) appalling and surreal--"Fish&Chips"; "Burger Shack"; "Steaks--Curries--Asian Dishes".
