This is a great introduction to Chinese food. It's greatest strength is in it's ability to peel back the curtain and tell the reader how to shop in an Asian grocery store, what to look for and what to avoid, and descriptions of different ingredients. There are about 50 recipes in the book, all very easy to understand and follow. I also really enjoyed the author's personal stories. This is more than a cookbook, it's an entire course in cooking and culture!

Damn Good Chinese Food
by Chris Cheung
This is a nice book, that gives a color photo of each recipe. Many of them looked delicious. I, personally don't care for the name of the book, could have been something more like "Superb Chinese Food," but that's just me.

Although I think this book is great and think Chris has chosen a wonderful selection for us, I really wonder how many of these recipes I will try. My kitchen isn't big enough, I don't have enough friends to share the meal. But if ever any book would entice me to try, this book is it.
My only complaint is that the names of the dishes are not written in Chinese. I often travel in Asia and would love to be able to order a wider range of treats in restaurants without English menus.
