Awkwafina: The Unlikely Cook

Awkwafina: The Unlikely Cook Nora embarks on a deeply personal cross-country journey as she explores contemporary Asian American cuisine, starting with her family's remarkable legacy.

Nora's family ran Lum's, the iconic Cantonese restaurant in Flushing, New York, and the very first in a now thriving Chinatown. But despite growing up in the family business, she can't cook. At all. She could ruin an instant ramen.
