From the classics through to street food, and some very clever fusion cooking, this book is a beauty - full of heart-warming food for the adventurous eater.' -- Michel Roux Jr. 'Judy's food feels like food without borders. Deeply rooted in Korean flavours and aromas- there is something familiar in all her dishes. There is a satisfaction after eating which can only come from nourishing comfort food.' -- Asma Khan, Owner of Darjeeling Express 'Korean food, whether traditional or contemporary (or even meshed deliciously and surprisingly appropriately with Mexican cuisine), is one of the world's great culinary treasures. Nobody makes it more vivid and accessible-and more fun-than Judy Joo does in this lively and appetite-stirring new book.' -- Colman Andrews, co-founder of Saveur
