He grew up surrounded by a beautiful variety of cuisines from all over the world. Growing up in a Chinese migrant family in Thailand, they all moved to the United States in 1966.
Jef Tila worked hard in the restaurant business and is exposed to food all his life. He brings thousands of hours of earnest hard work and expertise to his cookbook, which is admittedly very personal to him. He recommends that his book be read by people who also have an earnest desire to learn how to cook real Chinese food using traditional methods.
