Toronto Womens Bookstore Staff Picks for December

Chow: From China to Canada: Memories of Food + Family by Janice Wong. Whitecap, $24.95
There's lots of wonderful Chinese dishes and Western desserts to cook here and they'll taste even better eaten with the knowledge of the family stories and love behind each one. The author's father, Dennis, ran two Chinese-Canadian cafés in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, and his story is both unique and a richly-flavoured portion of Chinese-Canadian history.
