Every kitchen in the world hides its secrets. This is especially true for Chinese cuisine. Its traditions are very different from those in the rest of the world. For example, only in China is food served in bites. This is necessitated by the belief of the host that it is rude to make the diners cut themselves. Items such as a knife and fork have no place on the table according to Chinese etiquette. These objects are weapons and putting them on the table is a barbaric act.

To this day, Chinese tradition requires eating with chopsticks. Even if you have mastered this technique, you must be careful not to stick your stick in the middle of the bowl of rice. This portends trouble for you and your fellow diners.

These centuries-old traditions, as well as many others, are observed both in China and in the numerous neighborhoods of China around the world today.

Chinatown has been considered a mysterious and mysterious place for years. To this day, they keep secrets that none of the tourists or newcomers can touch. And that goes for any such neighborhood, whether it's in Singapore, London or San Francisco.

However, there is one person who has long been trying to reveal the culinary secrets of Chinese masters. This is the great chef Martin Ian.

The story of Martin Ian is very similar to that of Marco Polo and his Silk Road. Yen, armed only with his pan and chopper, manages in the most innocent way to unravel the well-kept secrets of dozens of chefs. Then, with his unmistakable culinary flair, he transforms them, leaving something of himself each time.

Martin Ian offers us a walk through the culinary map to try something new and exotic. Sydney does not miss the Chinese Seafood Exchange, as well as the Chinatown of Yokohama, one of the world's largest ports. There, in the Yokohama restaurant Earth and Sky, he meets Chef Xie, whom he compares to Picasso.

From Chef Xie, Master Ian learns the secret recipe for his famous sweet and tart fish fillet, and then shows his fans the stages of its preparation.

Among the other places the great chef visited during his television series was Gerard Street in London's Chinatown. There he easily masters an interesting way of cooking noodles.

With his work, Martin Ian proves in an indisputable way that travel is the best way to diversify the home recipe list. Globally, it is the largest promoter of Asian cuisine, and rightly so, since it offers such a dizzying variety.
