    This book's depiction of the differences between North and South China is hilarious. One character says, "What's the point of life if you don't eat pancakes?" The other replies, "Life is meaningless if you don't eat kueh teow!" The author even hand-draws a diagram of kueh teow making, adding step-by-step phonetic annotations in Chaoshan dialect. The old man, whose speech is impaired after a stroke, uses his left hand to scribble crookedly on the diagram while debating. It's both funny and heartbreaking. Later, the description of vacuum-packed beef balls, stuffed with ice packs, being carried back from Shantou to southern Shandong, with garlic and celery stalks nestled in a clear broth, made me ravenously hungry late at night. Wherever the emotional storyline unfolds, there's always something to eat; this book knows how to comfort.
