Because they don’t teach the truth about the world, schools have to rely on beating students over the head with propaganda about democracy. If schools were, in reality, democratic, there would be no need to bombard students with platitudes about democracy. They would simply act and behave democratically, and we know this does not happen. The more there is a need to talk about the ideals of democracy, the less democratic the system usually is.

The issue? This new restaurant, Lynn Shanghai cuisine, made a public statement that its dumplings, xiao long bao, is better than Din Tai Fung’s. Being a xiao long bao lover, I had to judge this case for myself. Finally, after days of thinking and trying to remember every single detailed evidences, the judiciary is over… and Lynn has won the case and my favoritism. 

Although they did went head-to-head with the xiao long bao, Lynn’s portions were bigger and the taste had excelled Din Tai Fung’s by an inch. Not only were the food portions bigger but the service was just welcoming and warm.
