Summary: Graceful essays
Comment: A long-time resident of Japan, Donald Richie fondly explores the relationship of Japanese foods to Japanese history and culture in a series of graceful, eminently readable essays. If you want to know how tempura came to Japan, why the Japanese play Russian roulette with fugu (blowfish), or why riceballs are standard picnic fare, this is the book for you. (Note: This book does not contain any recipes.)

Summary: Fabulous introduction to Japanese eating culture
Comment: This book is a great introduction to the culture
of eating and drinking in Japan. The colour
photographs are sensational and the text is clear
and well laid out. By reading this book I have
been able to get much greater pleasure from
eating and preparing Japanese food.
