Most Asian restaurants are really two restaurants: one where
outsiders eat, and one where insiders dine. So how can you become
an insider and take full advantage of Asian cuisines?
In this indispensable guide, dining expert Steven A. Shaw proves
that you don't have to be Asian to enjoy a VIP experience--you just
have to eat like you are. Through entertaining and richly told
anecdotes and essays, "Asian Dining Rules" takes you on a tour of
Asian restaurants in North America, explaining the cultural and
historical background of each cuisine--Japanese, Chinese, Southeast
Asian, Korean, and Indian--and offering an in-depth survey of these
often daunting foodways. Here are suggestions for getting the most
out of a restaurant visit, including where to eat, how to interact
with the staff, be treated like a regular, learn to eat outside the
box, and order special off-menu dishes no matter your level of
comfort or knowledge.
Steven Shaw--intrepid reporter, impeccable tastemaker, and eater
extraordinaire--is the perfect dining companion to accompany you on
your journey to find the best Asian dining experience, every
time.
