About R is for Rice

A children's ABC book celebrating popular asian dishes! As Asian Americans growing up in the U.S., we rarely saw ourselves reflected in popular books and media. When we look specifically at children's books that foster an appreciation of Asian American heritage and influences on American life, we see even more gaps. We created our first book, R is for Rice, to celebrate Asian cultures infused in daily American life! Join us on a journey through the alphabet with the ABC’s of Asian American foods! At JKL Teahouse, we are proud of our multiple Asian heritages, and we are proud to be Americans. Our mission is to inspire a broader definition of “American” by offering products that reflect Asian Americans and the impact of Asian communities on American life.Read their story
