Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. nonfiction/cooking memoir with recipes- told from points of view of single mom refugee from Vietnam, the American woman who sponsored her and became her parenting and restaurant business partner, and also of the daughter growing up in Miami.
