About the Author
Paradise Yamamoto is the known as the "Gyoza King" and his exclusive Tokyo-based, members-only, reservations-only hideout known as Mamgyoen (Vine Garden) operates at an undisclosed location and serves a maximum of six diners each night at a single table. Big-name celebrities are among the fans of his irresistible dumpling creations. When he's not preparing outrageously delicious Gyoza for his exclusive clientele, Paradise fulfills his role as Japan's first official World Santa Claus Congress representative, visiting children's hospitals and homes and appearing on TV and radio broadcasts during the holiday season. He is also a mambo artist and creator of "mambonsai" (a term he coined); a pop-culture riff on the traditional Japanese art of bonsai, where miniature plant scenes are supplemented with fanciful or kitschy figurines.
Reviews
"[This] book is filled with 50 wildly creative, delicious potstickers." --The Not So Starving Artist blog
"Chef Paradise Yamamoto has handed a passport and compass to gyoza lovers everywhere." --FlavorfulWorld.com
"The master of Gyoza gives new meaning to the definition of celebrity chef, reinventing the concept with his artistry and sense of purpose. He personally makes these dumplings in his 'members-only' Vine Garden restaurant, serving only six customers a night...He suggests commercial wrappers for the dumplings so that readers can focus on his simple-yet-exquisite fillings. Tuttle Publishing honors his objectives with the finished book. Innovative, modern Japanese design makes it as visually inviting as it is accessible. Yamamoto-san believes everyone can make these dumplings, and this book does everything possible to deliver on that promise." --Retailing Insight
