The The Way of Eating (or "Way of the Eating")() is a work on cooking and gastronomy written by the Qing-dynasty poet and scholar Yuan Mei. It is known in English under various titles, including Recipes from the Garden of Contentment (and variations: "Food Lists of the Garden of Contentment", "Menus from the Garden of Contentment", and "Recipes from Sui Garden"). It was originally published in 1792 (the 57th year of Qianlong Emperor), and contains instructions and critiques on Chinese cuisine as well as a large number of recipes of dishes from the period. It was updated by Xia Chuanzheng in the late 19th century, and not translated into English in complete form until 2018.
