"I first encountered the Salt Air Margarita—a satiny blend of tequila, orange liqueur, lime, and a salty foam—about a decade ago at China Poblano, Andrés’s dumpling-and-taco parlor in Las Vegas, which I view as a notably successful and audacious exercise in culinary exchange." - Helen Rosner

There’s also chao nian gao, rice cakes with seasonal greens, vegetables, shiitake mushrooms, and bean sprouts bathed in soy and black bean garlic sauce — and a pineapple and pomelo tart." - Ryan Slattery
