At the Chinese Table
At the Chinese Table describes in vivid detail how, during the 1970s and '80s, celebrated cookbook writer and illustrator Carolyn Phillips crosses China's endless cultural and linguistic chasms and falls in love. Huang, who nourishes her intellectually over luscious meals from every part of China. During her second year in Taipei, she meets scholar and epicurean J. H.
Carolyn's reticent father-in-law--a World War II fighter pilot and hero--eventually embraces her presence by showing her how to re-create centuries-old Hakka dishes from And then, before she knows it, Carolyn finds herself the unwelcome candidate for eldest daughter-in-law in a traditional Chinese family.This warm, refreshingly candid memoir is a coming-of-age story set against a background of the Chinese diaspora and a family whose ancestry is intricately intertwined with that of their native land.
