Mouth-watering,
“Modern Asian Flavors: A Taste of Shanghai” is a delightful journey through author’s, Richard Wong, heritage and upbringing. The recipes are simple and sophisticated, and like the back cover of the book declares, “bursting with flavor”.
Wong’s recipes are easy-to-follow and show a more modern approach to Asian cuisine. The photographs are gorgeous making each dish look mouth-watering.
Chapters included in this book are: Shanghainese Sauces; Cocktails & Appetizers; Soups & Salads; Poultry & Meat; Fish & Shellfish; Vegetables, Rice and Noodles; and Desserts. Some of the tasty recipes you can find in here are: Ginger-tini, Hot and Sour Soup, Skewered Sesame Chicken, and Peach Wonton Crisps.
This is a wonderful book!

Don’t waste your money.,
I purchased this book on a whim thinking that it would have some authentic Shanghainese recipes. It was a waste of money. Rather, the book is a random collection of not so impressive recipes that the author knows how to make, with no connection to Shanghainese cuisine at all.

Delightful Read !!,
The author’s descriptions of his life throughout the book is absolutely charming. His reasons for cooking the way he does brightens all the recipes.
