Interwoven throughout, Riaz's food and travel writing illuminates the diverse history of the Indian, Chinese, and African heritage that culminates in the food culture of these lands today. Ranging from plant-based to meat and seafood, Riaz offers up not only delicious dishes but also the inseparable stories of people and places.
