The Adventures of Fat Rice:
Recipes from the Chicago Restaurant Inspired by Macau by
Abraham Conlon and Adrienne Lo and Hugh Amano shares 100
recipes exploring the vibrant food culture of Macau - an
east-meets-west melting pot of Chinese, Portuguese, Malaysian, and
Indian foodway.
An hour's ferry ride from Hong Kong, on the banks of the Pearl River in China, lies Macau - a modern, cosmopolitan city with an unexpected history. For centuries, Macau was one of the world's greatest trading ports: a Portuguese outpost and crossroads along the spice route, where travelers from Europe, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and mainland China traded resources, culture, and food. The Adventures of Fat Rice is the story of how two Chicago chefs discovered and fell in love with this fascinating and, at least until now, unheralded cuisine. You can read more about this title in our author interview post.
