FOOD&DRINK HONG KONG
By Wee Ling Soh & Takako Masuki (ASIAN_FOOD_DESIGN)
Born out of a conversation on how contemporary picture books for children can often feel generic—focusing mostly on fruits, animals, or vehicles—FOOD&DRINK HONG KONG was created to offer children in Asia beautifully illustrated books rooted in local culture.
This volume is a thoughtful, affectionate introduction to the iconic food culture of Hong Kong for readers of all ages. Blending personal nostalgia with warm visual storytelling, it captures the spirit and flavors of a rapidly changing city through its rich culinary traditions.
