Hamlyn to publish Hong Kong 'culinary adventure' from Jeremy Pang
Hamlyn, part of the Octopus Publishing Group, is set to publish "culinary adventure" through Hong Kong from food author and TV chef Jeremy Pang.
Publisher Kate Fox and editorial director Natalie Bradley acquired world all-language rights to Hong Kong Kitchen from Richard Watts at Ever Forwards Partnership. The book will be published in February 2025 and priced at £25.
Pang’s book has been updated and the publisher said it "offers a fascinating insight into the region’s rich food culture" and includes more than 70 recipes, including street food from dumplings, baos and barbecue snacks through to hotpots, rice pots, noodles, desserts and drinks.
Pang said: "I’m so excited to be launching my next cookbook: Hong Kong Kitchen in conjunction with my recent epic adventure with my friends and celebrity guests who came out to enjoy the journey with me. This book is a wonderful revisit of Hong Kong Diner, my original ’love letter to Hong Kong’; one of the most unique cities in the world. It tells my personal relationship with the city through its endless array of mouthwatering food and in many ways pays homage to my late father who, until the day he passed, just wanted one last bite of Hong Kong crispy pork."
