I devoured this book. I loved it. I grew up in a small village in Wales and one of my best friends' parents owned the local Chinese takeaway. Really enjoyed this memoir, though upsetting at times to read about the discrimination and abuse the Hui family had to go through. Each chapter has a recipe at the end, what a bonus!
