Reader comments
Mr. Xiang Da's research was very in-depth and gave me a deeper understanding of that period of history. I can't help but think that when I study cooking, I will also learn from other countries' cooking methods. This kind of exchange and fusion is really interesting. This book made me feel the charm of cultural exchange, and I recommend it to you!
