Xi'an Famous Foods: The Cuisine of Western China, from New York's Favorite Noodle Shop by Jason Wang

2.0

I wish I hadn’t read this. I like Xi’an Famous Foods and have done since they were a little street stand in Flushing and a quick bus ride from where my parents live. The recipes in the book are ok, not great. But the real bummer in this book is the original owner’s son whose voice takes up a lot of space with his life story and he mostly comes off as a huge d-bag. Feels more like a vanity project than a serious cookbook and it’s really disappointing.
