""Another spectacular collection of pungent critique, delivered with great style!""-- ""Krishnendu Ray, author of The Ethnic Restaurateur"" ""This eagerly anticipated second volume is not just more scholarship about Asian American food but a continued and reflective conversation about the porous boundaries of the terms, ideas and materials that are Asian American food. It goes beyond transnational in its scope, centering the flow of practices and ideas rather than fixed ideas of food as regional culture. The authors engage with change and continuity in the dozen years since the first volume to explore (among many topics) the multiple Asian identities of boba, how Chinese duck preparation required new laws in the US and the historical actors submerged in the kinship of Filipino bebingka and Goan bebinca.""-- ""Megan J. Elias, author of Food on the Page: Cookbooks and American Culture""
