Here are some reviews about this book:
"Everything you ever wanted to know about the big business of Chinese food!"
"Jennifer Lee is a first generation Chinese-American who became obsessed with the interface between Chinese restaurants and American culture after learning that over 100 people had gotten five out of six winning Powerball numbers by playing the lucky numbers that came with their fortune cookies. Her obsession has resulted in a delightful cultural history with a tiny bit of personal memoir thrown in. "
"By the way, did you know that Chinese restaurants outnumber all the McD's, BK, and Wendy's combined?"
Are you hungry? Can't wait for Chinese take out and lots of fun!
What a fun night! Thanks for coming and can't wait until next month.
