Review: Part travelogue, part cookbook, the companion piece to Martin Yan's PBS television series offers a diverse collection of Asian recipes native to Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Thailand. While these places and their cuisine may seem exotic, Martin Yan, as always, has a way of simplifying things, making Asian cuisine accessible and removing the intimidation factor - even for the most naive of westerners.

The more than 140 recipes are a mix of traditional as well as nouvelle fusion cuisine. Full color photography of many of the dishes, as well as the far off places where they're from, add to the book's appeal. Scattered throughout the book are Chef Yan's memories of his travel, recipe and ingredients notes, and lots of instructional material t help you achieve great results.

Chapters include: Tools, Techniques and Tips; Hong Kong: The Global Eating Place; Taiwan: A Culinary Crossroads; Thailand: Land of Color.
