A journey to one of the most exciting culinary places in the worldThis book is 'triple' irresistible! 1. thanks to its luxurious embossed, gold-foil printed and pink-edged finish. 2. because of its exceptional design and photography, which brings to life the incredible variety of flavours that make up this city. 3. because of the authentic stories and recipes.TOKYO STORIES is an exciting journey with Tokyo connoisseur Tim Anderson, who is as much at home in the labyrinths of underground department stores as he is in the restaurants of the top luxury hotel floors and in the countless noodle shops, sushi bars and yakitori huts in between. With a sure instinct, he has tracked down the recipes that best reflect the dazzling facets of the urban culinary world. This includes creamy corn soup from a food vending machine as well as unexpectedly good cheese-fried chicken from a convenience store. Authentic dishes like gyoza, ramen, onigiri, homemade curries, udon and more are of course not to be missed. With over 80 locally researched recipes, their sources reflected in exciting reportage and food photos, and the author's vividly told anecdotes, this book is a must for any Tokyo fan and for anyone who loves damn good Japanese food.
