Taste of Old Hong Kong by Fred Schneiter

Reminiscences and recipes of favourite international and regional dishes from households, fancy restaurants and back lanes which you can enjoy today in Hong Kong, that classy old gal who will forever reign as the Queen of Cuisine for all who knew her when she was the jewel of the British Empire. Bestselling author Fred Schneiter shares a nostalgic romp back into that earlier era which has faded into treasured memories and photos. But we didn't lose it all. The tantalising cuisines and tempting cookpot scents of that earlier time remain. Many of them await you here. If you have ever daydreamed about what it might be like to drop back into an earlier, less hurried time in an exotic corner of the world, this is how we found the food, the friends and the fun in old Hong Kong. Features 70 recipes.
Fred Schneiter traveled from San Francisco to Asia in the early 1960s, and stayed for 30 years. He now lives in Wilsonville, Oregon.
