Counting to Ten in Chinese Food

One Two Three Dim Sum by Rich Lo

November 1, 2025 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

This book is very simple; it’s a kids book of the “let’s learn to count to 10” variety. It’s mostly simple pictures of dim sum or related items, appearing in amounts in ascending order. Besides the food theme, and colorful basic art, this counting book is in Mandarin Chinese. It’s got both the characters and the words written out for how to say “one menu” up to “ten fortune cookies”, Each page has three panels, one for the English word and Arabic numeral, one for […]

Mooncakes & Milk Bread by Kristina Cho

July 28, 2024 by CoffeeShopReader 1 Comment

Bingo 6: Part 1 Mooncakes & Milk Bread is a cookbook emphasizing Chinese bakery baking. For those, like me, who don’t exactly know what that is, there are occasional 2-ish page interludes with stories and explanations. The reason such a thing qualifies for this square? About 80% of the recipes are extensions of one of four base recipes (the parts 1): milk bread, mooncake, steamed bun, and a variation on puff pastry. Basically, there are 4 part ones, followed by a lot of recipes that […]

Cozy mysteries that will make you hungry

Death by Dumpling by Vivien Chien

A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette

March 28, 2021 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

Sometimes you need a cozy mystery (or two) to relax your mind. If you’re looking for low-stakes mysteries featuring female amateur sleuths, give the Noodle Shop or Ice Cream Parlor books a whirl. Coincidently, these are both set in Ohio. A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette is a newer series with only two books released. In book one, we meet Bronwyn, Win for short, as she re-opens the family’s ice cream shop in the middle of winter. Not the best time, but her home-made […]
