Yummy Yummy mag scan and function!
Yummy Yummy article scan in this week TVB Magazine. Many thanks to Ilsunjo, P-Chan and Ka Ka. Scans from www.kevincheng.com.hk
*Updated 27 July 2005 (Wednesday)*
Brief translation for the articles above. Sorry, the words are quite small so it's difficult for a non-chinese educated person like me to read out all the words clearly. I started to squint my eyes 2 hours from reading them so I'll just post the relevant information here for the time being. Luckily, I found a larger version of the scan from Yeungyi.com so I'll go home and try to translate them in detail tomorrow, ok?
