Savour 88 recipes - and remarkable stories - from the immigrant vendor-chefs of NYC's first and favourite night market.

On summer Saturday nights in Queens, scents from Moldova to Mexico whet families' appetites as they feast on food from over 90 countries.

Welcome to the Queens Night Market. It's had well over a million visitors since 2015, and there's little wonder why: the food is delicious, the energy infectious - and the $6 price cap, irresistible. Many of the participating vendors are first- and second-generation immigrants living in Queens - the most diverse urban area on Earth.

In The World Eats Here, they share their prized recipes and tales of home. Though each is entirely unique, they all demonstrate the importance of one thing: food brings people together, and nowhere else could that be more true than at the Queens Night Market.

John Wang

John Wang was born and raised in Texas, but his love affair with night markets started during the childhood summers he spent visiting Taiwan.

A graduate of Yale's law and business school (and triple-major from the University of Michigan), John quit his high-paying attorney job after paying off his student loans and pursued his dream of creating what came to be the Queens Night Market.

Now in its 5th year, the popular event averages over 12,000 visitors every summer Saturday - and has welcomed over a million visitors since its inception.

She created the video for the Queens Night Market's first Kickstarter campaign and the stories included in this book are derived from her long-form interviews with participating vendors for her thesis The Queens Night Market Vendor Stories Oral History Project.
