As a freelance journalist and food writer living in Beijing, Jen Lin-Liu already had a ringside seat for Chinas exploding food scene. When she decided to enroll in a local cooking schoolheld in an unheated classroom with nary a measuring cup in sightshe jumped into the ring herself. In Serve the People, Lin-Liu gives a memorable and mouthwatering cooks tour of todays China as she progresses from cooking student to noodle-stall and dumpling-house apprentice to intern at a chic Shanghai restaurant. The characters she meets along the way include poor young men and women streaming in from the provinces in search of a rice bowl (living wage), a burgeoning urban middle class hungry for luxury after decades of turmoil and privation, and the mentors who take her in hand in the kitchen and beyond. Together they present an unforgettable slice of contemporary China in the full swing of social and economic transformation.
