Huang’s memoir of growing up in Orlando in a restaurant family of Taiwanese immigrants reveals how his experiences as a truant, drug dealer, Tupac idolizer, and lawyer were essential to his transformation into the successful proprietor of a Lower East Side bun shop and host of shows on Vice TV and the Cooking Channel. Anthony Bourdain fans will relish Huang’s irreverent, barn-burning prose style, especially as he tackles ideas about food authenticity and its relationship to identity. Laurie Colwin devotees, not so much.

Paperback.
