A frequent traveller to the Orient, the author has produced a book of food that combines Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese seasonings with ingredients from his native Pacific coast. The result is food that is light, healthy and easy to prepare. The book won the Best Asian Cookbook of 1988 IACP/Seagram Awards.

From Library Journal:
Carpenter, a talented California chef, creates unusual dishes using ingredients and techniques that are a blend of the Oriental and the European: Spicy Swordfish Salad, Roast Chicken with Chinese Herbs, Rabbit Chinois. They are original, ingenious even, rather than merely trendy (though the recipes are almost overwhelmed by the lavish format and new-wave photographs); easy to prepare; and inviting. Costly, but buy this if you can. JS
