Once part of the Martha Stewart support team, Ying Chang Compestine dropped out to dip into the dark stuff. She has created “A Banquet for Hungry Ghosts” and it’s a feast tasty enough to tantalize the dead … and the living. Her collection of ultra-spooky tales is a journey across time … and China. Some very hungry ghosts are determined to fill up, and food isn’t necessarily the answer. This book has scary stories and not-so-scary recipes. So when the ghosts come knocking you can serve up a bowl of long life noodles. If that doesn’t work use the book to cook a up a feast for that hungry ghost … and invite your friends.
