A young and charismatic generation is redefining what it means to be a chef in this celebrated food city. Open to the world and its influences, these chefs have traveled more than their predecessors, have lived abroad, speak other languages, and embrace social media. Yet they still remain distinctly Japanese, influenced by a style, tradition, and terroir to which they are inextricably linked. This combination of the old and the new is on display in <i>Tokyo New Wave</i>, a transporting cookbook and armchair travel guide that captures this moment in Japanese cuisine and brings it to a savvy global audience.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Fazzari employs all of her skills as a writer, photographer, and dining consultant living in Japan in this insightful look at the current Tokyo food scene. . . . This is a unique cookbook, and in Fazzari's hands, Tokyo's culinary culture comes to life.<br><b>--</b><i><b> Publishers Weekly </b></i> <p/>For all of us cooks, Japan, Japanese cuisine, and Japanese chefs spark fascination--fascination for their movements, their ingredients, and the richness and appreciation of details. Japanese cuisine teaches me that the simple is complex and that the complex is not easy. . . . When I went to Japan the first time I believed that I knew a little bit about Japanese cuisine, but I was wrong. Today, after more than ten trips to Japan, I can assert that I don't know anything about it, which enhances my fascination. Andrea Fazzari's beautiful, captivating book enhances this fascination even more.<br><b>-- Alex Atala</b>, Chef, D.O.M, São Paulo, Brazil <p/>It is so exciting to read Andrea Fazzari's striking book about this collection of young Japanese talent. They have opened the doors for the world to see one of the most dynamic culinary traditions in full-on evolution. I see cooks from everywhere who are influenced by their ideas and are racing to see more. <b><br>-- Michael Anthony</b>, Chef, Gramercy Tavern, New York City <p/>Andrea Fazzari is one of the most amazing photographers and food writers. . . . Her photographs always make the food look so seductive.<br><b>-- Gaggan Anand</b>, Chef, Gaggan, Bangkok, Thailand <p/>Looking at the pages of this striking book filled with Andrea Fazzari's beautiful photography and insightful words, I inhaled the aroma of a fascinating culture as if I were actually on a journey through Tokyo. Its chefs, although young, are mature beyond their years, constantly offering extraordinary emotion to the world. <i>Buon viaggio!</i><b><br>-- Massimiliano Alajmo</b>, Chef, Le Calandre, Padova, Italy <p/>I love Tokyo.
