...Franzen, Mailer, Wallace, Wolfe, Chabon, Lethem, King, 125 of them- and got each one to cough up a top-10 list of the greatest books of all time. We're talking ultimate-fighting-style here: fiction, non-fiction, poetry, modern, ancient, everything's fair game except eye-gouging and fish-hooking. Then you printed and collated all the lists, crunched the numbers together, and used them to create a definitive all-time Top Top 10 list...

...Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur. These cafeterias offer yummy testimony to the diversity of a nation composed of Malays (roughly half of the population), Chinese (a quarter), Indians (less than 10%) and indigenous peoples (who, together with a smattering of other ethnicities, make up the remainder): Spicy grilled fish courtesy of Malay chefs compete with juicy pork dumplings from the Chinese and the flaky delights of Indian breads.

...home to one of the world's first fusion cuisines, Nyonya, a melding of Chinese cooking and Malay flavors that evolved, in part, from intermarriage between the two groups. To my taste buds, Nyonya is one of the most delicious cuisines ever created. I could write odes to its fish-head curry, and its aromatic braised meats...
