Well, she didn't go to China until the 90s, as did I. And there were plenty of cookbooks then.
She said also that in China, chefs aren't seen as artists and celebrities like they are in the West. And that it's a low-brow profession.
But people that lived in China say that's false but I don't really know myself. Maybe she is wrong?
