chinese dialects: He was there to cook for renowned chef Alain Ducasse after attending culinary school at Institut Paul Bocuse in Lyon, according to NOW Magazine. On his days off, he'd wander the 13th arrondissement of the capital, where Chinatown is located. When Craig Wong lived in Paris in his early 20s, he felt deeply homesick. The Scarborough-raised chef, after spending most of his waking hours cooking high-end French food, missed the flavours of home, the ones that reminded him of Toronto's Chinatown the cacophony of Chinese dialects weaving in and out of erhu music, the sight of roasted pork glistening in restaurant windows and the scent of dried mushrooms and tea leaves floating from herbal shops. It was the shittiest Chinatown I'd ever seen, he recalls, seated at a table at the recently opened Jackpot Chicken Rice, his trendy new casual restaurant on Spadina. Paris didn't cut it.
