Based on an average store's setup, Ms. Bladholm gives us information
on things mundane, like rice, to the exotic, such as sharksfin.
Along with a description of each item,
the book also features the author's sketches and brand recommendations.
Several basic recipes are to be found in the back of the book.
Even though I consider myself to be knowledgeable about the Asian grocery store,
I found this book to be very helpful.
It will give people, from the absolute beginner to the
seasoned veteran, the confidence to walk into a store and
identify the first odd thing they see.
And printed in a manageable size, it's easy to carry with you.
