Cute Boys With Red Glasses

Today we'll feature two Handsome Asian American Guys wearing glasses with reddish frames accentuating their beauty and handsomeness!

Andy Le is a sous chef at fine dining joint, Chef Mavro, in Honolulu HI.

Here is Chef Mavro's Twitter feed and blog post announcing MidWeek's article featuring Andy.

According to the article, Andy went to Saint Louis High School and the Culinary Institute of America (CIA). He always has parmesan, fish sauce (very Vietnamese--mmm!), and fresh herbs in his fridge, but is very good at relaxing and separating worktime and downtime. He likes the pizza at V Lounge (formerly Club Venus) near Ala Moana Shopping Center and the Taiwanese hot pot at Sweet Home Cafe in Moiliili. Hmm, I have an idea--we can check out these Sweet Home Cafe menu pages one, two, and three that someone kindly uploaded to Urban Spoon and imagine our handsome Andy Le perusing the same menu and then munching on their goodies! For those fortunate to visit Honolulu, they might visit Sweet Home Cafe and perhaps even run into Andy!


Ok, next up with cute red glasses is actually a handsome Canadian comedian, Vong Sundara.

Vong has a comprehensive site at supercute.ca. He grew up in Winnpeg but lives in Toronto--awesome, eh?

For more Vong candy, check out his flickr photostream, especially the "Smiling Headshots" album--man, he is so scrumptiously handsome!

Now's let's indulge and enjoy Vong's hillarious and growing comedic talent with the video that first introduced me to him--"Super Power Bottoms"



Andy and Vong are examples of guys that I'd think of as simultaneously cute and handsome. It's very fascinating to contemplate and wonder how they achieve this, but it's plainly clear there are cute guys that are handsome, and handsome guys that are cute--mmm, yummy!

Looking forward very much to tasting Andy's deliciously fine creations and seeing Vong's standup. Their handsome cuteness will only add to the experience. Andy and Vong, keep on rocking it out and being handsome for us!

Taiyo Na, Studly Handsome Singer

Taiyo's fan, "Goldn 'N' Rong" on flickr has a great picture of them after Taiyo's performance. Regarding his slight scowl, Goldn 'N' Rong apologizes and explains Taiyo's "song got my all choked up had my mean face on," a genuine statement of the strong emotions Taiyo Na evokes. By the way, check out the handsome asian american guy in the jacket behind them waving something in his right hand--he's super handsome too!

Here's a pic of Taiyo on a PBS show called Asian America. He looks good in a jacket! When you listen to his somewhat deep lyrics concerning serious issues and emotions, and see him on a panel discussion show like Asian America, one is impressed with his thoughtfulness!

Taiyo Na--handsome hoodie stud

Taiyo's website has more information on his talents and accomplishments. His facebook page has a number of posts to keep up to date on his latest activities. Here's his youtube channel and his twitter feed.

Listen to some of his music right here! I like the sound of Summertime, but Lovely to Me, a song about his struggling immigrant Mom, is especially haunting.





Whoever gets to be with Taiyo is lucky indeed! Whoever that person is, enjoy him for us, and congratulations!

Taiyo, please keep on thinking, singing, and being handsome for us!

Brian Tong, Handsome CNET editor

Brian Tong is a handsome editor for cnet.com. His cnet profile page is here.

Brian has an energetic Twitter feed which informs us he'll grow sideburns like Jason Priestly and Luke Perry in celebration of the Beverly Hills 90210 televesion series from the 1990s, corresponding with September 2 (written more or less "9/02/10" in the US).

He also has a blog called "B-Teezy" which can give you a glimpse into his thinking. I love hot and handsome techno-geekazoid cuties like Brian Tong!

Now, it's very easy to find many beautiful pics of Brian online, but as I googled for images, the most interesting thing happened--google suggested "brian tong shirtless" and "brian tong hot" as related searches, showing other netizens are find Brian Tong handsome as well! This amazing revelation made me feel warm and fuzzy in a community of Brian Tong admirers! Here's a screenshot of it!



Be sure to check out his own homepage, with lots of nice images and videos. It looks like he even tried out for The Real World reality television series back in 2001!

Here's the video where I first discovered Brian--he's reviewing a Sony camera!


But you really start to get more of his comedic personality in this video, where he dances around to an iPhone app called "I am T-Pain." It's from CNETs "theapplebyte" newsmagazine on Apple Computer news, and opening has a great futuristicly-lit silhouette of Brian biting into an apple with a big crunch! CNETs description of Brian is apt, citing "his unique style." Get a taste for handsome Brian's comedy talents here!


Keep on rocking out your informative and funny vids Brian! Keep on being handsome!

Handsome Audience-Member Andrew Asks Jimmy Chen a Question on the Tyra Banks Show

Wow, I just found this interesting blog called Being Gay and Asian in America by clicking on a link to it from this Asian Gay & Bisexual Males Working Page!

I haven't gone through all the material on either site yet, but Being Gay and Asian in America had this interesting video from the Tyra Banks Show. The episode was called "Focus on Race: Interracial Dating," which when googled appears to have aired way back in 2006.

At 2:40, Tyra introduces Andrew--he's really handsome, cute, and has a beautiful voice! It looks like he's wearing a nice hoop earring on his left ear, and looks very stylish with his haircut, dark grey shirt with the first button left open and a loosely fixed brown and white striped tie. The loosely tied tie just makes us want to take off his shirt and glimpse what surely must be his juicy and scrumptious chest!

We don't learn Andrew's last name or the school where his professor asked him "why do you hate yourself?" so unfortunately for the moment, we can't learn more about this handsome asian american audience member!

I think both Andrew and his professor are a bit presumptuous in immediately asking "Why do you hate yourself" just because you have historically gone out with people from another race. In this video, both audience-member Andrew and Tyra-guest Jimmy Chen can sound a bit defensive. So I'll leave the "potato queen"/"rice queen" debates to others. Yet Andrew's existence as a Handsome Asian American Guy is what's important to document for this blog.

Andrew, if you're out there, let us know a bit more about you and what you're up to! Keep on being handsome!

Be sure to check out the show's clip so you can see and hear Handsome Andrew ask his question!

Michael Yung, a Barista Babe !!!

Have you ever gone back over and over to a cafe, hoping for a glimpse of your handsome barista? Perhaps you find it's his day off, and your heart sinks in disappointment. But if he's there, you're giddy with excitement because you can gaze longingly while he's making your drink while everyone will just think your an exacting coffee connoisseur when you're really just taking in all of his breathtaking beauty and handsomeness! Well, I'm sure Michael Yung, our handsome barista babe has many people doing just that!


Michael's beautiful side profile, next to some coffee beans in a specialty grinder at a barista competition.

Michael's beautiful eyes examining cups for cleanliness.

According to this canada.com article, Michael won the 2007 Canadian Barista Championship, held in Toronto. Here's a great blog documenting the 2007 Canada Championships. And here a ctv.ca article on the story. It seems to have a video as well, but I'm having trouble viewing it. I'm thinking it might only be available to viewers in Canada, so perhaps a Canadian reader can let me know if this is the case. CTV says Michael'"Yung's signature concoction consisted of fig puree, espresso and vanilla bean Chantilly cream infused with coffee"--mmmmm, sounds tremendously tasty!

And Michael got 5th place in the 2008 World Barista Championship!!! Unfortunately, it looks like there was a video of him at this event, but for some reason, it's been removed! It's too bad, because I would love to watch Michael and his beautiful hands work that hefty espresso machine and draw out shots! =)

For a quick trip into Michael's mind, check out his blog. He hasn't updated it for awhile, but he has some wonderful comments on coffee places in Vancouver and Seattle.

Appropriately apt, Michael's flickr handle is "baristahands." He seems to be a fan of photography and travel as well, with many great shots on his flickr photostream documenting his adventures in coffee places like Mexico, Nicaragua, Colombia, and Guatemala, as well as exciting Asian places like Hong Kong and Japan. He also seems to enjoy air travel, and has a nice set of travelog-ish pics in his "The World at 35 000 Feet" photostream.

As far as I can tell, Michael is at Caffe Artigiano, with several locations in the Vancouver BC area.

UPDATE: I've discovered Michael's twitter feed (using the "baristahands" handle) and learned he's moved to HONG KONG as "Coffee Ambassador" for Graffeo Coffee Roasters from San Francisco!

Michael Yung, our handsome barista babe!
