Summary:
"At the news of her mother'
s
death,
Natalie
Tan
returns home. The two women hadn't spoken since
Natalie
left in anger seven years ago, when her mother refused to support her chosen career as a chef.
Natalie
is shocked to discover the vibrant neighborhood of San Francisco's Chinatown that she remembers from her childhood is fading, with businesses failing and families moving out. She's even more surprised to learn she has inherited her grandmother'
s
restaurant. The neighborhood seer reads the restaurant's
fortune
in the leaves:
Natalie
must cook three recipes from her grandmother'
s
cookbook to aid her struggling neighbors before the restaurant will succeed. Unfortunately,
Natalie
has no desire to help them try to turn things around--she resents the local shopkeepers for leaving her alone to take care of her agoraphobic mother when she was growing up. But with the support of a surprising new friend and a budding romance,
Natalie
starts to realize that maybe her neighbors really have been there for her all along."--Publisher.
