The youngest of four daughters - her name means Little Sister - her family had no money or connections, yet they raised her with a thirst for knowledge and a love of food, ranging from the Lions Head meatballs her Uncle Deng cooked to the phoenix feet that apparently cured wrinkles, by way of two-hundred-year-old eggs.Xiaomeis entertaining and inspiring story takes us to a world where children play with painted pig toes, dumplings give you perfect ears and rather than saying hello, you ask chilema or Have you eaten?This is a unique and engaging account of a culture and cuisine that is a world away from the China we know today.
