Description

Kylie Kwong rediscovers her heritage while exploring the food and culture of a vast and enigmatic country. Her inspiring journey takes her from the stylish modernity of Hong Kong and Shanghai to the wilds of the Tibetan plateau and the rural simplicity of her ancestral village in China's southwest. And everywhere she goes, Kylie can't resist sampling the local specialities and cooking up a storm. Her experiences are captured in stunning location photography and more than 80 authentic recipes show more from regional China. show less

A combination of a travel account, personal journey and cook book - it's a good read (ties in with the television series), beautiful photographie and the recipes are doable, even if you're not Chinese.

A lush and expensive cookbook that, for all its heft, is curiously light on recipes. But stir-fried corn with red onions and the Chinese dried sausage called lup cheongmay be worth the price of admission.
