Chopstix: Quick Cooking with Pacific Flavors

Library Journal

Another beautiful collaboration by the authors of Pacific Flavors ( LJ 4/15/88), with Sandison's full-page color photographs showing off the visually stunning, creative dishes served in Carpenter's Chopstix restaurants. Carpenter merges the cuisines of those on both sides of the Pacific to come up with Goat Cheese Salad with Ginger, Salmon Mousse in Black-Bean Butter Sauce, and Asian Barbecued Salmon. His food is innovative but sensible, with unusual but complementary combinations of flavors and textures. Recommended.
