Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The sharply comic debut about the tangled lives of people working, fighting and falling in love in a neighbourhood Chinese restaurant.
'An enthralling plot line reminiscent of a prime time drama that you can't stop watching... we couldn't put it down' - Bon Appétit
An exuberant and wise multigenerational debut novel about the complicated lives and loves of people working in a local Chinese restaurant. The popular Beijing Duck House in Rockville, Maryland has been serving devoted regulars for decades, but behind the staff's professional masks simmer tensions, heartaches and grudges from decades of gruelling service work.
