The title "Thaii Vs. Soul Food" came from my love for Thai and Soul food.
I got the idea to put both of this cuisines together because both have similar ingredients.
The flavors of both cuisines mary together so smooth and fine which makes them a perfect match.Recipes that i have writtten are very simply, easy and delicious dishes.
There Are eight catorgies you can look at and enjoy cooking from one of them.
Hope you enjoy my book there will been more to come.
