Nicoles Mones, author of The Last Chinese Chef I cannot guarantee that all the people under heaven will have the same tastes as I do, but I can still introduce them to dishes and recipes that I fancy. Although matters of food and drink can be considered trivial, I have earnestly said all that I wish to say from the heart, and for that I regret nothing! Yuan Mei, in the preface to Recipes from the Garden of Contentment Recipes from the Garden of Contentment: Yuan Mei's Manual of Gastronomy is the first English edition of the Suiyuan Shidan , one of the worlds most famous books about food.
