...course. And there are probably no other books that can tell you which wine to choose when ordering Korean soup not simply as an accompaniment but as a main meal (the answer is a Côtes du Rhône Villages, a sparkling wine or a dry rosé), or what to pair with northern Chinese offal dishes (try a Cahors or Madiran).

With U.S. troops stationed in neighboring Vietnam, Khmer musicians like Sinn Sisamouth and Ros Serey Sothea mixed the trippy rock of Armed Forces Radio with Khmer melodies, creating spaced-out, original tunes.
