About the Author:
Wendy Hutton, a New Zealander by birth, first moved to Southeast Asia in 1967 and has worked in the region ever since—specializing in travel and food writing. She has eaten her way through every country in Asia, gathering recipes from cooks everywhere from simple villages to elegant restaurant kitchens. Since 1978, she has written or contributed to many books on Asian food, as well as writing reference books on Asian herbs and spices, vegetables and fruits. Hutton is based in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo.
Alberto Cassio left his native Italy after college, having felt the exotic pull of Bali. He soon moved to Thailand, which was quickly modernizing and in desperate need of photographers. During this time, Cassio worked for publishers, airlines, magazines and resorts. He also founded Photobank, the first stock photo library in Thailand, which is now home to the largest collection of Thai images.
