Tēnn Sūn-Tshong, from Minxiong Township in Chiayi County, is one of today’s most active and innovative authors writing in the Taigi (Taiwanese Hokkien) language. In Eating Taiwanese, Tēnn takes readers along on a flavorful investigation of iconic Taiwanese foods that starts with one of his home region’s best-known dishes – turkey rice. Much more than a foodie guidebook, this work follows the author as he walks the side streets and chats in the language of street food with favorite snack creators and vendors, piecing together a one-of-a-kind map of authentic Taiwanese eats. Illustrations by comic artist Ruan Guang-Min lift the hood to show how snacks are made, helping bring the narrative to flavorful life.
