Happy to share the cover of my latest book, Invitation to a Banquet, which will be published by @penguinukbooks at the end of August! I hope you’ll find it fun and thought-provoking! You can preorder it at @waterstones and other bookshops . (US edition from @wwnorton November!)

Cc @fuchsiadunlop After reading Invitation to a Banquet I think this would be happening

As you may know, every year I make an edible Christmas card that brings together Chinese and western food cultures. This year I offer you English mince pies decorated with the help of Chinese mooncake moulds! A new kind of English dim sum? Fuchsia 扶霞

Tra i consigli di @GastronomikaLk anche "Invito a un banchetto" di @fuchsiadunlop. 🍚 Scoprilo qui: addeditore.it/prodotto/fuchs…

I’m starting to listen this by @fuchsiadunlop and it is fantastic. I think audio is best in this case as she is fluent in Mandarin and uses the Chinese words for many dishes and ingredients. Had first heard the author through @tylercowen

@EdAlvarezB @tylercowen Thank you! So glad you’re enjoying it!

Fish-fragrant aubergines/eggplants for Thanksgiving! What a great idea 😋

So very sad and shocking, what a loss to Rachel’s family and colleagues.

My first glimpse of the new KOREAN edition of Invitation to a Banquet! I haven’t yet seen a physical copy, but this is so exciting!

But of course: research “ has revealed that eating international food does not merely spice up the diet – but makes people more tolerant.” theguardian.com/food/2025/oct/…

Same, @delia_cai. Same. 🙂 @fuchsiadunlop #invitationtoabanquet

@cindygallop @delia_cai Thanks!

Trying any food once is a good rule to follow. My wife does not subscribe to that belief, thus we ate quite differently during our honeymoon in Vietnam. There was a great video put out by @mercatus years ago where @tylercowen (and other guests) spoke with the excellent @fuchsiadunlop during a meal at Panda Gourmet restaurant in D.C. The entire video is on line and worth watching but this clip is Tyler asking Fuchsia how he can try and enjoy sea cucumber more than he currently did. I would highly recommend Fuchsia’s latest book, Invitation to a Banquet, the Story of Chinese Food, which came out in 2023. I absolutely loved it. youtu.be/Z9KK-0bd1RU?si…

My latest piece for Scribehound Food is about the Chinese habit of drinking hot water - in the context of a culture with an ancient love of hot liquids! If you’d like to subscribe for a treasure chest of articles about food, here’s a link! shorturl.at/NnVdR
