display_description
"Nineteen eighties Detroit was a volatile place to live, but above the fray stood a safe haven: Chung's Cantonese Cuisine, where anyone from the city's first Black mayor to the local drag queens, from a big-time Hollywood star to elderly Jewish couples could sit down for a warm, home-cooked meal. Here was where, beneath a bright-red awning and surrounded by his multigenerational family, filmmaker and activist Curtis Chin came of age; where he learned to embrace his identity as a gay ABC, or American-born Chinese; where he navigated the divided city's spiraling misfortunes; and where between helpings of almond boneless chicken, sweet-and-sour pork, and some of his own, less-savory culinary concoctions he realized just how much he had to offer to the world, to his beloved family, and to himself."--Publisher's description.
