Award-winning food writer and photographer Alastair Hendy has travelled through India, Burma, Thailand, Laois, Vietnam, Singapore and Bali in search of the best home cooking, scribbling down stories and recipes, and clicking the camera at everything delicious in his path.
And here is the result: a gastro-led travelogue of Asia, captured by a sensitive eye and with a passion for all things Asian. Alastair has spent years researching this book - trawling through dawn starts, sundwon climbs, mosquitoed nights, and dodgy boat and plane rides in far-flung outposts of the globe, in search of the ultimate recipe, ingredient or shot.
The result is a unique collection of images and back-home do-able dishes that celebrate the food, lives and worlds of generations of Asian home cooks.
