What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was mesmerized by the traditional roasting process at Sun Kwai Heung, particularly the 'space shuttle' style oven used to cook 120 kilos of char siu daily. He described the extra fatty pork as life-changing, noting its unique springy texture and rich glaze. His favorite was the medium fatty cut, which perfectly balanced the smoky char with the savory-sweet marinade.
