Chow With Lau
Hi! My name is Michael Lau. I have 2 passions, photography and food - particularly Chinese & Asian food. I'm a pro photographer by trade but both my parents were chefs so food has always been a huge part of my life.
I never became a chef partly because of the loooooong hours & also because, well I wanted to be a photographer! So having a YouTube channel dedicated to showing people how to make delicious Chinese and Asian food is probably my perfect dream come true.
Here I will show you how to make classic take out & restaurant food as well as more traditional Chinese recipes. I often come up with my own tasty original ideas and I like to do non Chinese/Asian dishes too ,so watch out for those! My goal is to show you how to make all these amazing dishes in easy, step by step guides. No complicated techniques or ridiculously hard to get ingredients. Just easy to follow tutorials and mouth watering food! Everything you need to go on your own culinary journey to the Far East.
Enjoy!

Someone complained that they hated it when I say ‘delicious’ in my videos.
What food related word triggers you?
One of the words below is one of my biggest per peeves. See if you can guess which one. Leave your guess in the comments and I will let you all know when we have over 20 guesses 😄

This comment means such a lot to me. Everything I am stems from my grandparents and my parents moving their lives half the way around the world to create a better life for me and my siblings.
To be able to preserve part of their legacy through my videos has always been a huge part of creating my channel, and to see these recipes help others now, and hopefully generations to come, is just overwhelmingly wonderful to me.
I always, always mean it when I say ‘Thank you for watching’. Because without you, there is no channel.
Thank you ❤️

Comment of the week!
This comment was in response to my non-stick vs steel wok video.
I would suggest that Dennis could probably stir fry using the flames coming from his mouth.
But do you think he has a point..?
Let me know below 😊

Today’s Aubergine in Garlic Sauce video was a bit of a challenge - some of it self inflicted 😆
Firstly we had workmen digging up the road outside just as I started recording. This delayed the shoot by 2 hours because of the noise.
Next I made the rookie error of forgetting to press ‘record’ for the stir-fry part of the video. D’Oh!
I didn’t have any more peppers so my lovely wife went out and got me some more. Another 30 minutes lost.
And finally my camera battery died during the second stir-fry take! So I had to shoot it again.
So a bit of a frustrating day, but I think it’s been worth it because it’s a really tasty recipe.
I’m not asking for sympathy because these things happen.
But please watch it because otherwise I might cry 😭 😅🙏🙏🙏

Massive thank you to everyone who has been so supportive of my return to YouTube. You are all AMAZING!
So I've got so much stuff coming over the next few weeks - merch, new content and a new logo. The one in the pic is a prototype, not the finished logo btw.
People have been asking how they can support my channel so I've updated my Patreon page with some very exciting benefits. If you'd like to get involved, please check out my page patreon.com/chowwithlau
Cheers Everyone!
Michael :)
