Biographical Note: Brief Description: "A vibrant exploration of the evolution of Korean cuisine, both in Korea and in Koreatowns across the globe, with more than 75 bold, flavor-packed recipes and stunning photography. Join chef Deuki Hong and journalist Matt Rodbard as they take an insider's look at the exciting evolution of Korean food in modern times, breaking new recipe ground with beloved sweet-spicy barbecue, creative rice and seafood dishes, powerful stews, and KPOP-fueled street food. In their New York Times bestselling cookbook Koreatown, they explored the foods of Korean American communities across the United States.
