New in paperback, this book describes one of the most notable examples of the globalization of food: the spread of Chinese recipes, ingredients and cooking styles to the Western world. Beginning with the accounts of Marco Polo and Franciscan friars who traveled to the East, and concluding with the relatively recent phenomenon of Chinese restaurants, it will appeal to food historians and specialists in Chinese culture, as well as to anyone interested in Chinese cuisine.
