Ann Hui
Works by Ann Hui:
From CBC, "Ann Hui grew up in Vancouver where she had access to a cornucopia of authentic Chinese cuisine. Outside the city, Hui's curiosity was piqued by small town Chinese restaurants, all of which had menu items she'd never heard of — ginger beef and sweet and sour pork — and had similar furnishings, paper lanterns and some combination of the terms "garden," "panda" and "fortune" in the name.
While working at the Globe and Mail, Hui pursued her interest for these establishments on a cross-Canada road trip, writing about her experiences for the newspaper.
When Hui returned home, she discovered a surprising secret about her own family history. She has turned this discovery and her adventures in Chinese Canadian cuisine into a book, Chop Suey Nation."
She presented at the Sunshine Coast Festival of Written Arts, Sechelt in 2019.
