It is said that he lived for over 800 years and was honored as the 'God of Longevity'. Some even say that he is the most knowledgable expert in preserving human's health. Anyone who knows more about him? : )

Dear Rajan, you can find many recipe books about Chinese cooking, some of them were published by Marshall & Cavendish; or you can search the internet. Have a good try. Wan
