Asian Flavours

"Along with the ceremonies, rituals and traditions, it's the fascinating combinations of flavours and unsual ingredients that Europeans find delight in when it comes to the cuisines of Asia. Yet, how are spaces designed for these cultures and cuisines? What prevailing atmospheres can be found in such spaces? And how successful are European architects at addressing these cultures--without falling back on the tired clichés of "Asian decor"? From tea houses and simple noodle kitchens to exclusive sushi restaurants, this publication showcases over 30 projects of Asian and European architects in cities across both continents. In addition to design concepts, the various cuisines and their respective dishes are presented based on the ingredients and an explanation of their methods of preparation. Introductory essays by Asia experts from different backgrounds sketch out the major cuisines of the continent--stretching from Japan to China, across Korea to Southeast Asia, and finishing in India--as well as providing an insider's perspective on the traditional table manners and dining customs of Asian families. As a whole, the publication offers both architects and designers inspiration and insight into Asia's fascinating culinary culture"--Back cover.
