"This is a cookbook that shows how you can bring flavors from around the globe - from fish sauce and chiles to soy and spices to rice and corn - seamlessly into your home cooking. But more than that, it's a book about learning: how to talk with your neighbors and how to bring people together in a world that sometimes makes them feel far apart. It's a story of Vietnamese Houstonian Crawfish and Fried Chicken Tamales and Korean-Style Sloppy Joes. It's a story of how cooking like a local often means cooking like someone from half-way across the globe." -- back cover.
