If you love what those of us without any Chinese heritage call 'Chinese Food', then pick up this book!

Ann Hui tells the story of her family's history and the stories of other Chinese-Canadians in this delightful and inquisitive book. What started as a journal piece for The Globe and Mail about the history of Chinese Food in Canada turned into a full length piece about Hui and her husband's road trip across Canada. Hui was seeking to learn about where 'Chop Suey' cuisine came from, and her questions were answered in full!

I loved learning about Hui's own parents and their experience as restaurant owners, and I loved meeting all of the restaurant owners across the country. I loved the road trip aspect of this book, and it made it really fun to see what small-town Hui would be stopping in next! The history of this food was fascinating, and knowing the Canadian spin on various dishes brings me joy as a Canadian reader.

A wonderful and informative read!
