As hordes head to Shenzhen, Hong Kong bars, restaurants sign up for more floor space (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong's food and beverage (F&B) operators, both new and existing players, signed leases for 155,000 sq ft of new floor space in the second quarter of this year, a record high for the sector and more than double the amount registered in the first quarter, according to property consultancy CBRE.
In the first half of the year, they snapped up 230,000 sq ft of new space, CBRE data showed.
However, analysts said the city's selective and narrow-based retailing recovery was forcing brands and......

′A crisis of authenticity′: the truth about food influencers (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Instagrammers have upended the British restaurant scene, and amassed followings in the millions. But has their moment already passed?In 2017, two aspiring YouTubers going by the name Topjaw published a video posing the London foodie's most important question: what to eat in Chinatown? They enlisted the help of longtime Instagrammer Kar-Shing Tong (better known by his username @ks_ate_here), who took them on a lovingly curated loop of the neighbourhood. Cantonese siu mei duck at Four Seasons, Chongqing-style handmade noodles at the now defunct Little Wooden Hut, and Barshu on Frith Street, where they decadently cracked a whole crab for the camera. Any of the 100,000-odd viewers who watched it at the time would be well served by its responsible (if unspectacular) recommendations. But in retrospect, the video may be of more interest to historians. In its unassuming and rapidly cut seven minutes, you can almost see the tectonic plates of the food world begin to shift.Tong is the elder statesman: the @ks_ate_...

Bloomberg Agri Index Posts Biggest Monthly Jump Since Arab Spring Riots As Food-Crisis Risks Mount
The Bloomberg Agriculture Spot Index (BCOMAGSP) posted its largest monthly gain since the chaotic days of the Arab Spring riots and is nearing a breakout above its 2023 highs, signaling a broad-based acceleration in agricultural commodity prices. The upside momentum comes as Wall Street increasingly warns that a perfect storm of factors, from El Niño and higher fertilizer and diesel prices to disruptions in the Black Sea and the Strait of Hormuz, could push the global food system toward another crisis.
From veteran commodities strategist Jeff Currie turning bullish and UBS urging clients last week to "position for a commodity upcycle" to warnings from Barclays analyst Craig Rye and JPMorgan analyst Nora Szentivanyi, the message from Wall Street is becoming increasingly harder and harder to ignore: Agricultural prices are breaking out, raising the risk that today's physical commodity s...

How To Engineer A Food Crisis
Via UNSHADOWED Substack,
The UK paid farmers to stop producing, and now blames a food crisis on the weather...
The UK seems to be in a world of hurt.
The media has been abuzz about the need to stock canned goods due to "food shortages," blaming global warming and hostile nations:
- Guardian, August 25, 2026
Remarkably, these were exactly the causes blamed in many tabletop exercises, including Food Chain Reaction Game 2015 - keynoted by none other than John Podesta - which, unsurprisingly, demanded "better global governance."
But the genesis of this "new" food crisis, being used to justify an acceleration of gene-edited crops and other unpopular measures advancing the technocratic takeover of food, lies not in Russian aggression or CO2, but in bad policies and economic warfare against farmers for generations.
The Food Crisis is Coming from Inside the House
Though several novels could be dedicated to the systematic strangulation of Brit...
