炒蒜香雜菇豆腐
Living in Hong Kong, me and my family had worked from home for two months since Chinese New Year, end of February, due to the spreading of coronavirus. In recent weeks, we have been out to work in office constantly. However, my friends in England told me that they are now going through just like what Chinese been through in China for the previous two months, working from home, staying home all week long. What a time this is for all of us. My thoughts go out to everyone and hope you all stay safe and healthy.
