Book excerpt: 'Don't judge Australia just by the Australians.' Dame Edna Everadge Welcome to Australia. One of the most far-flung and beautiful destinations in the world. Home to the dreamiest coastlines and cityscapes human beings have ever clapped their eyes on. Home of dags, bingles, snags and sangers, Australia boasts some of the planet's most exotic, dangerous and unique species of animal and insect and, irrefutably, the most inspiring outback terrain and ocean vistas known to man. It is the country referred to as the land of the plenty, God’s Own Country. And it’s true. It is. But God’s been a bit absent lately. Which is why, now, after all these years, Australia has started to look a little shitty. A little overgrown. A little bit long in the tooth. It is, in short, a country in need of a good hose down ... and a hug. This is a hilarious collection of photographs of one of the world's most ridiculous countries at its worst. The photos reveal the eccentricities, bleakness and humour of every nook and cranny of the entire country – the dry bleak deserts and the over-the-top natives. Shit Australia is a warts-and-all walk around the world's most crazy country, seen through the eyes of its own locals and Patrick Dalton – the quintessential Englishman down under. Word count: 3,000

Download or read book Central Park written by Andrew Blauner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central Park is perhaps the most well-trod and familiar green space in the county. It is both a refuge from the city and Manhattan's very heart; a respite from the urban grind and a hive of activity all its own. 843 carefully planned acres allow some 37 million visitors each year to come and get lost in a sense of nature. Unsurprisingly, the park also inspires a wealth of great writing, and here Andrew Blauner collects some of the finest fiction and nonfiction-- 20 pieces in all, with classics sprinkled among 13 new ones commissioned from great New York writers. Bill Buford spends a wild night in the park; Jonathan Safran Foer envisions it as a tiny, transplanted piece of a mythical Sixth Borough; and Marie Winn answers definitively Holden Caulfield's question of where the ducks go when the park's ponds freeze over. There are bird sightings and fish sightings; Jackie Kennedy and James Brown sightings; and pieces by Colson Whitehead, Paul Auster, and Francine Prose. This vibrant collection presents Central Park, in all its many-faceted glory, a 51-block swath of special magic.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Gourmand World Cookbooks awards for 'Best of the Best Cookbooks in the World in 25 years' 2020, 'Best First Cookbook and Best Cookbook Photography' 2018 and 'Best Cookbook in Japan' 2017. Harvest Niseko is the guide to Japanese home cooking.

Each recipe is simple enough to cook for a week night dinner for the family yet when paired together will impress for a dinner party. Recipes are organised into 10 chapters of the famous 'Niseko-farmed' ingredients of cabbage, asparagus, egg, tomato, potato, rice, daikon radish, carrot and lily bulb, beans and tofu, and pumpkin, explore various cooking techniques and offer traditional and modern flavours from throughout Japan, all with the international kitchen in mind. Harvest Niseko also explores the lives of ten inspiring Niseko farmers and eight creative chefs as they reflect on their childhood memories, career defining decisions and culinary journeys. www.harvestniseko.com 'There's often a direct relationship between chef and farmer in Niseko that adds a special significance and quality to the dining experiences on offer here. When long-time local chef Tess Stomski decided to dig a little deeper and learn more about these connections, she uncovered an incredible world of stories surrounding the lives of local farmers and what goes on behind the scenes of Niseko's now-famous food industry. In this world a young 'natural-cultivation' farmer massages and sings to his tomatoes; an older farmer extracts flavour and sweetness from this carrots by storing them under the snow in winter; and a rice farmer introduces ducklings to his paddies in spring to organically control insects, before selling them as ducks to high-end restaurants in autumn. These stories and many more form the foundation of Tess's four year labour of love - exquisite new recipe book Harvest Niseko. The books' 100 recipes have been created in collaboration with Chisato Amagai, another local chef and colleague at Tess's former catering company Niseko Gourmet. Dishes are easy to cook traditional, and modern Japanese, with some taking inspiration from French, Italian or Asian cuisine but incorporating local ingredients. If you set yourself up with Tess' suggest pantry it's very easy to go out to your local supermarket wherever you live and cook up and authentic Japanese meal.' Kristian Lund, Powderlife Magazine

Download or read book Chow Chop Suey written by Anne Mendelson and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese food first became popular in America under the shadow of violence against Chinese aliens, a despised racial minority ineligible for United States citizenship. The founding of late-nineteenth-century "chop suey" restaurants that pitched an altered version of Cantonese cuisine to white patrons despite a virulently anti-Chinese climate is one of several pivotal events in Anne Mendelson's thoughtful history of American Chinese food. Chow Chop Suey uses cooking to trace different stages of the Chinese community's footing in the larger white society. Mendelson begins with the arrival of men from the poorest district of Canton Province during the Gold Rush. She describes the formation of American Chinatowns and examines the curious racial dynamic underlying the purposeful invention of hybridized Chinese American food, historically prepared by Cantonese-descended cooks for whites incapable of grasping Chinese culinary principles. Mendelson then follows the eventual abolition of anti-Chinese immigration laws and the many demographic changes that transformed the face of Chinese cooking in America during and after the Cold War. Mendelson concludes with the post-1965 arrival of Chinese immigrants from Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and many regions of mainland China. As she shows, they have immeasurably enriched Chinese cooking in America but tend to form comparatively self-sufficient enclaves in which they, unlike their predecessors, are not dependent on cooking for a white clientele.
