Eating Hong Kong: An Anthropologist's Everyday Observations

This book explores Hong Kong's food culture, focusing not only on the physical aspects of food such as form, taste, and texture, but also delving into its production methods, local significance, traditional values, ideologies, social changes, and cultural identity. It elucidates the author's research findings on a range of issues, including post-war immigration, agricultural practices, globalization, cultural heritage, and conservation. This work serves as both a retrospective on Hong Kong's food culture and an indication of a path towards a comprehensive understanding of Hong Kong society.
