As the daughter of award-winning restaurateur Leeann Chin, Katie's heritage has been deeply rooted in the cultivation of fine Thai cuisine. Katie has since taken the culinary world by storm as a well-respected food writer, television personality, and now published author.

The pictures in this book are unbelievable! If you want to learn how to cook Asian food, Katie's cookbooks are fantastic! --KSCO's Flavors Radio Show
(F)illed with enthusiasm and energy--and, what's probably more important, it includes nearly 100 recipes with exotic ingredients that are fairly accessible. The directions are easy to follow, and there are great color photographs. It's no wonder Chin has been called the Asian Rachel Ray. --Booklist (Starred Review)

Let's be real--I'm a fashion expert, not a chef. Therefore the kitchen intimidates me, and I wouldn't know what to do with a bean sprout unless it came with a handbag. Katie Chin's dynamic personality and ability to make food a relatable experience has transformed my fear of Thai cooking into an obsession that is now a daily part of my life. Her choice of ingredients is stylishly unique, while the ease and taste of her dishes have become my obsession. Friends, ever wanted an excuse to turn up the heat in the kitchen? Here it is. --Jeannie Mai, television host of Style Network's How Do I Look? and fashion correspondent on NBC's Today Show
I met Katie's mother Leeann Chin when she was a guest on my cooking series, Hawaii Cooks. Leeann was a fabulous cook and teacher. With this new book, her daughter Katie will make Thai cooking simple and approachable for the home cook, just like her mother did with Chinese cooking for American kitchens. Katie makes Thai cuisine easy to understand and approachable. --Roy Yamaguchi, award-winning chef, author, inventor of Hawaiian Fusion Cuisine and founder of Roy's Restaurant
Flipping through the pages of this extraordinary cookbook, you cannot ignore Chin's unwavering passion for Thai cuisine. As a mother, wife, and daughter of a great restaurateur/chef, this is one teacher you want to pay attention to. The pages will inspire you, as it did for me, to bring your family and friends to the table to share a delicious, healthy meal together. --Master Chef Martin Yan, author and host of Yan Can Cook
As a professional chef who spends 6 days a week cooking Italian cuisine, I often find myself craving an alternative cuisine when I get home. My friend Katie Chin has solved that problem for my family by arming us with the tools we need for a successful Thai meal. Her inspired menus will bring your family the taste and traditions of Thailand within the time constraints of the hectic American family schedule. Technique is the foundation of all great cooking! Buy this book, and you'll be armed with all you need to make a healthy, tasty meal in no time. --Michael Chiarello, acclaimed chef, cookbook author, TV personality and winemaker
