Gung Haggis Fat Choy gets BLOGGED! all around the world!

Gung Haggis Fat Choy” has been
reported on the net all around the world. “You're famous in Scotland,
you know, you've been posted on Friends of Scotland,” Harry
McGrath  told me last night at the Vancouver Public Library
reading for Gung Haggis Fat Choy Poetry Night.  And Harry should
know about Scotland, he was born there, and he is coordinator of the SFU Centre for Scottish Studies Program, Last year when he was quoted in the Canadian Press story Chinese Don Kilts,
the story got picked up across Canada, the United States and especially
in Scotland.  “All my friends and relatives were calling me,”
Harry told me when the story first came out.

The following are
links to blog sites, most are pretty recent. Most are very funny in
their reaction to discovering that such an event called “Gung Haggis
Fat Choy” actually exists. Many have posted the poster. But I will
start off by listing the dinner event reviews by Roland Tanglao the
foodie website he shares with partner Barb Lee.

Gung Haggis Fat Choy! November 24th
For
the last week, I've had the pleasure of long conversations with Todd
Wong, aka Toddish McWong, the man behind the cultural fusion event of Gung Haggis Fat Choy.  In my opinion, one of the best things about Vancouver is its post-modern approach to celebrating social diversity.

am of Scottish descent and I have to say that it came to me as no
surprise to learn that the organisation is Canadian. It was well known
