By 1J Martin Lam In the Catholic tradition, we are often encouraged, especially during our school years, to look to well-known saints as role models for living out our core faith values. However, this journey offered us something different: an encounter with saints we had never heard of, or who are seldom mentioned. Through the

漫遊素有「小潮州」之稱的九龍城，沿街老舖林立，街頭食香四溢，每一道滋味背後，皆蘊藏著在香港落地生根的潮州文化，令人心馳神往。 這片不大的街區，是異鄉人憑藉刻苦耐勞的精神立足香港、安頓身心並承傳家鄉文化的所在。早期來港的潮州人，面對語言不通、物資匱乏等重重困難，卻能憑一門手藝在九龍城紮根立足。以創發潮州飯店為例，作為「外來者」，在艱辛中開創生機，歷經數十載仍屹立不倒；更以一鍋精心調製的鹵水贏得口碑，使鹵水成為潮州菜的重要代表。走訪貴嶼仔後亦會發現，即使傳統祭祀用的糖塔近乎失傳，仍有人默默堅守工藝。或許一座糖塔製成後需等待經年方能售出，但匠人仍不改初心，延續技藝。由此可見，潮州人憑藉「一鍋鹵水、一雙巧手」，在九龍城開拓出屬於自身文化的天地。 此行最令我動容的，是體悟到文化從來不是固守一隅，而是能跨越山海，在他鄉與在地文化交融並延續。九龍城的潮州社群，將原鄉的民間信仰與飲食習俗帶到香港，例如「豬頭」造型的祭祀糕點、盂蘭勝會等，皆為潮州文化的重要組成部分。這些傳統來到香港後，與本地生活方式相互融合：手打牛肉丸結合港式粉麵，成為節奏急促的都市中深受歡迎的日常便餐，逐漸形塑出別具一格的香港風味；又如每年定期舉辦的「香港潮人盂蘭勝會」，既保存傳統，又融入本地社群，讓文化得以延續與更新。由此觀之，香港在融合潮州文化的過程中，不僅保存了傳統，更孕育出嶄新的文化樣貌，使其成為中華文化重要的分支與延續。
