" The Woks of Life did something miraculous: It reconnected me to my love of Chinese food and showed me how simple it is to make my favorite dishes myself, something I never thought I'd be able to do. Beautifully and lovingly created by the Leung family, this fantastic cookbook should be in every home!" --Kevin Kwan, New York Times bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians "For years, Bill, Judy, Sarah, and Kaitlin have been my go-to source for recipes and techniques that have roots firmly planted in Chinese tradition but with a uniquely American experience and voice. Their intergenerational approach makes The Woks of Life unique in its ability to inspire and educate, w ith an eye toward practicality and usefulness. This is a very special book." --J. Kenji López-Alt, author of The Food Lab and The Wok " The Woks of Life blog has been one of my absolute favorites for years--I am so excited to have the book in my kitchen! These recipes are not only delicious, but they make me excited to try new dishes and bring my family together to experience new flavors. The Leung family goes above and beyond in this book to help home cooks by explaining everything from cooking tools to pantry staples, and even providing QR codes to reference certain techniques you may not be familiar with. I cannot wait to cook through this book with my family!" --Alex Snodgrass, New York Times bestselling author of The Defined Dish and The Comfortable Kitchen "For years I was a fan, cooking many of the Leung family favorites for my loved ones. Then I became a friend when the whole gang generously agreed to come on one of my shows. We cooked all day and shared a meal I will never forget. This book allows everyone to get in the kitchen and effortlessly start cooking well-researched and delicious recipes while enjoying the personalities and tastes of Judy, Bill, Sarah, and Kaitlin. The Woks of Life cookbook is a must for any food lover." --Andrew Zimmern "Like so many of my friends that cook, The Woks of Life is one of the first places I go when I need a recipe that I know will be as knowledgeable as it is usable. Having a whole printed book of recipes to cook through at last is such a gift--I cannot find a single recipe in this book that doesn't entice me to cancel all of my plans and spend my evening cooking instead." --Deb Perelman, author of Smitten Kitchen Keepers "The Leung family, creators of The Woks of Life blog, have been my go-to source when I want to make everything from fried rice and scallion pancakes to spicy chili wontons and sesame-slicked Shanghai noodles. With clear instructions and step-by-step photos, anyone, anywhere, can make authentic and delicious Chinese food at home. I'm thrilled to have all their best recipes in one beautiful book!" --David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen & Drinking French " The Woks of Life became a staple resource for our family when we moved away from home and embarked on re-creating the flavorful memories of our childhood." --Lena and Mei Lum, Wing on Wo & Co, " The Woks of Life did something miraculous: It reconnected me to my love of Chinese food and showed me how simple it is to make my favorite dishes myself, something I never thought I'd be able to do.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
