Using the same beloved artistic style as the first volume, the author returns to take readers on a tour all over Hong Kong, Macau, and the Canton region to explore the food, the art, the celebrations, the literature, and architectures of the region!
From walking into a traditional BBQ establishment, and observing how the masters cook steamed chicken (白切雞), to visiting the studios of Chinese opera costume designers, to looking though historical documents to uncover the art of coloured porcelain, to learning about the craft of building strong and versatile scaffolding using bamboo sticks!
This is a great book for anyone who live in the Canton area, or who is interested in Cantonese culture. It's both delightful encyclopedia and "handheld" museum, and makes for a great gift for Cantonese cultural lovers.
