New Outlook Café in Outlook, Saskatchewan (www.ChineseRestaurants.tv)

Chinese workers came to Canada in the 19th century to build the trans-continental railroad, but by 1923, the country had kept Chinese immigrant workers out, as their services were no longer required. Against these odds, Jim Kook came to the Prairie town of Outlook, Saskatchewan as a "paper son" using a dead Canadian's identity. The gregarious "Noisy" Jim soon became the most popular man about town and ran his New Outlook Café for forty years until his recent death. Chinese Restaurants tells the story of the Chinese Diaspora through its most recognizable and enduring icon -- the family-run Chinese restaurant. In this 15-part series, Canadian filmmaker Cheuk Kwan takes us on a tour of restaurants around the world, bringing us into the lives of extraordinary families as they share moving stories of struggle, courage, displacement and belonging, and what it means to be "Chinese" today.
