Born above his grandfather’s modest restaurant in Mumbai, Hassan Haji first experiences life through intoxicating whiffs of spicy fish curry, trips to the local markets, and gourmet outings with his mother. But when tragedy pushes the family out of India, they console themselves by eating their way around the world, eventually settling in a small village in the French Alps.
