Eat All over Edo in Four Bites

"Eating Edo in Four Bites" is the representative work of Ryoichi Iino, an expert on Japanese food culture. Sushi, tempura, soba and eel are known as the "four kings of Edo cuisine" and "the unparalleled taste of Edo". They were born on the streets of Edo, developed into the form we are familiar with today in the smoky city, and have become representatives of Japanese food culture. In the book, the author cites a large number of first-hand historical materials to carefully sort out the entire process of these four most representative foods from their birth, development, to their current form. At the same time, with nearly 140 precious hand-painted illustrations, the author vividly outlines the urban life and common people's style in the Edo period.
