CPL at Printers Row: Kevin Pang: A Very Chinese Cookbook

This wide-ranging and affectionately irreverent look at Chinese cooking spotlights more than 100 recipes from weeknight dinners like Clay Pot Chicken Rice and Twice-Cooked Pork to comfort classics like Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup and celebratory fare such as Cantonese Crispy Pork Belly and Ginger-Scallion Lobster.
