Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant

by Curtis Chin

"Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant" is a memoir that chronicles Curtis Chin’s upbringing in 1980s Detroit, specifically within his family's Chinese restaurant, Chung's Cantonese Cuisine. The book explores Chin's experiences as a gay, American-born Chinese kid navigating a changing city, a large and loving immigrant family, and his own self-discovery. It's a story of coming of age and coming out; it's woven with the flavors and lessons of a beloved family-run business. ?
