閒逛三藩市華埠

日前因為工作關係﹐有幾個小時的空檔時間﹐在三藩市華埠閒逛。

住在三藩市的華青﹐相信很少會到華埠逛﹐因為那邊的衛生環境一般﹑街窄人擠﹐而且除了街市﹐其他店鋪都似"呃遊客"﹐我有個朋友以前曾經因為緊急需要電池﹐在那裡的電器鋪買了一pack﹐後來發覺不只價錢比其他地方貴﹐而且更是冒牌貨﹐非常離譜。所以除了遊客﹑老一輩華僑和住在那邊或有工作需要﹐在那邊逛的華人其實不多。

不過華埠始終是歷史悠久﹐其實也有不少地方值得一遊﹐尤其節日更熱鬧。買東西的話﹐也不是沒有好地方﹐我日前逛的時候﹐便在一間雜貨店內的一個賣影碟的小角落﹐發現到一些絕版碟﹐結果買了陳凱歌的早期名片"孩子王"﹐這齣戲已找了很久﹐上次回港也找不到﹐想不到在這裡居然有﹐是內地的正版碟(看來是正版)﹐價錢大概是3元﹐以內地碟來計﹐算可以接受。不知這間鋪的影碟是否水貨﹐很多都賣得很平﹐就算是香港碟(肯定是正版)﹐也和在香港買不會差太遠。

要在華埠尋寶﹐其實也不是很難﹐不過真的要花點時間去尋﹐而且不是每次都可成事。

我的新片也有部分場景會在華埠取景﹐希望到時能一切順利。

華埠內其中一條小巷﹐很有特色的建築

有人說住在華埠的老人不懂英語﹐脫離主流﹐一輩子都窩居在內﹐就像把自己困在一個籠之內﹐你覺得對嗎?

madeinhk, not exactly like the old kowloon city, there are a lot of old buildings, but the community itself is evolving to keep pace with the society.. lou, you are right, they are not ignored, they don't have a problem making a living, there are a lot of good people helping out (like the organizations you mentioned), but i guess it is also true in a sense that some of them are living in their own and closed community, there is obviously a cultural gap.

Around 10 years ago, I had stayed in LA for almost one year. My friend's girlfriend (an American girl) took me to Chinatown to have dim sim. We were chatting and giggling away whilst stuffing our faces at the same time. When I, cheerfully, said "Ng Goi" to the dim sum lady, she looked at me with wide eyes and asked me how long I have lived in LA. I told her that I have arrived for 2 months and she said "NO WAY! She was looking totally dumbfounded as she said, "How come you can speak so much English in 2 months while I can't speak any for having lived here for 20 years already...."
