Recensione
'A sumptuous Chinese banquet with thirteen enchanting fairy tales on the menu - centuries-old stories of gods, ghosts, noblemen, monks, peasants, farmers, and merchants all motivated by some aspect of food having or not having it, growing, cooking, relishing, transforming it.' - --Jama's Alphabet Soup
"In addition to the recipes and details about cuisine, Yee includes proverbs, information about the origins of the stories, and brief insights into Chinese history and culture, making this a collection to feed the mind and the body." --Publisher's Weekly
