From the Vietnamese diaspora side , Kim Thuy’s works and life speaks to the importance of restaurants within the Vietnamese community and bridging to the larger Canada 🇨🇦. I’m very excited to read Anna’s and Cheuk’s works now .

I just read this book, and it brought back a flood of memories for me as a kid who grew up working in my Dad's cafe serving Chinese and Western food. I got a ton of stories from this part of my life. The book is very entertaining, humorous and well researched. Its interesting that these stories are very similar regardless of where the diaspora ends up. Well done and highly recommended.

Just finished reading this book. Loved it ❤both for the style and content. I am a non-Chinese and reside in one of the cities covered in the book-I look forward to visiting that restaurant. Also await more such writing. Best wishes👍😊
