In the #Philippines, ube means much more than a pretty purple hue. From the Filipino chefs I met while writing this feature for BBC Travel, I learned how the tuber can serve as a lens through which to better understand the country's history: bbc.com/travel/story/2…

My latest for Bon Appétit: a site called Aina (formerly known as Farms That Are Delivering) helps users find small farms which offer delivery to their area! bonappetit.com/story/aina-sma…

In my latest for BBC Travel, I wrote about #biangbiangnoodles and the curious dish's fascinating origins. Hidden within the complex Chinese character for "biang," it turns out, are clues to #Xian’s past: bbc.com/travel/story/2… The Woks of Life Xi'an Famous Foods Lost Plate Food Tours



In Mexico City, the pandemic has sparked a renewed appreciation for the ancient agricultural tradition of chinampas. My story for Condé Nast Traveler: cntraveler.com/story/in-mexic… #xochimilco

松鼠桂鱼 (literally, “squirrel fish”) does not count squirrel among its ingredients. It’s traditionally mandarin fish, artistically scored before frying + dousing in sauce. Really grateful that I got to shine a small light on the dish for Infatuation SF 😋 theinfatuation.com/san-francisco/…

Have you ever cracked an egg only to find it houses not one, but two yolks? A rarity, usually – but a curiously common sight in Yangzhou! I wrote a story for CNN Travel about where those double-yolk eggs come from (a little county called Gaoyou...): cnn.com/travel/article…

Few food pairings are more comforting than 🥚 and 🍚, in my humble opinion — especially when it takes two minutes to whip together (literally!). A recipe for tamago kake gohan is up on The Kitchn: thekitchn.com/tamago-kake-go… 😊

Never thought I'd see my name on the same page as, or even in the vicinity of, the indomitably brilliant Nigella Lawson's 😭 What incredibly talented folks – thank you GuildofFoodWriters for including me alongside them, for some reason!!

Jazzed to write about one of my favorite unexpectedly multifunctional kitchen tools for Bon Appétit! Every time I use my ostehøvel, I quietly (sometimes out loud) appreciate how ingenious the design of this Norwegian cheese slicer is.

.Megan Zhang's spicy eggplant salad is a side dish that steals the show: bit.ly/3AGZXiq


Loved writing about this hug in a bowl for TODAY Food 🥰 today.com/food/whenever-…

Earlier this summer, I wrote a piece for Condé Nast Traveler about the impact that decreased ecotourism had on conservation efforts in Costa Rica during the pandemic: cntraveler.com/story/in-costa…

This steamed pear is wonderfully warming and throat-soothing after a chilly day, and incredibly easy to prepare. Get Megan Zhang's comforting, satisfying recipe: bit.ly/3HzAFXF


Megan Zhang Fortune cookie makers, cooks, and artists are, each in their own way, quietly spurring a reinvention of the classic dessert. Read more: saveur.com/food/aapi-rede…
