Synopsis
From America's most famous underground restaurant-delicious recipes and amazing stories of mayhem, misdemeanors, and cooking with balls Adventures in Starry Kitchen chronicles the unlikely transformation of a wildly popular (and definitely illegal) underground sensation into an (eventually) legitimate and celebrated mainstay of the Los Angeles food scene. Paired with the behind-the-scenes tales that contributed to, nearly derailed, and inspired its success are 88 recipes for Pan-Asian comfort food, mouthwatering and easy-to-make dishes like Lemongrass Chicken, Claypot Caramelized Striped Bass, Pandan Churros, Singaporean Chili Crab, Roast Pork Belly XO Fried Rice-one of the most elusive dishes in North America-and Starry Kitchen's trademark Crispy Tofu Balls. Whether cooking for two, four, or for your own (portion sizes included!) underground operation, Adventures in Starry Kitchen is a fully illustrated, hilarious retelling, and gorgeously rendered how-to manual for accomplished and aspiring at-home chefs alike., In 2008, as the American economy cratered, newly unemployed Nguyen Tran and his newly unemployed wife-to-be, Thi, opened an off-the-grid eatery in their small Los Angeles studio apartment. Word of their fabulous food quickly spread, turning their culinary "speakeasy," Starry Kitchen, into an underground sensation--and the #1 Asian fusion restaurant in L.A. on Yelp. Threatened by the city's health inspector, Nguyen and Thi transformed Starry Kitchen into an acclaimed and wildly popular pop up restaurant in a downtown sushi joint. But their success was only beginning. As their clientele exploded, thanks to raves in the Los Angeles Times, Nguyen and Thi moved to a bigger space of their own in Chinatown, where they helped make the neighborhood the epicenter of L.A.'s burgeoning food scene. Adventures in Starry Kitchen chronicles Starry Kitchen's DIY evolution--"this beautiful accident gone right"--the mayhem, mishaps, misdemeanors, milestones, and amazing meals that have contributed to (and nearly derailed) its success. As they tell their story, the Trans share more than eighty-eight easy-to-follow pan-Asian recipes--mouthwatering and flavorful comfort cuisine, including Claypot Striped Bass, Buttermilk Beer Beignets, Singaporean Chili Crab, Double-Fried Chicken Wings and, of course, Starry Kitchens trademark Crispy Tofu Balls. Whether you're cooking for two, four, or sixty, Adventures in Starry Kitchen demonstrates you don't have to be a desperately hip (or even trained) chef to master sensational modern food that will amaze and delight., The behind-the-scenes story of America's most famous underground restaurant, featuring more than eighty-eight deceptively simple and unbelievably delicious pan-Asian recipes and dozens of luscious full color photos.
