Summary

In the mid-1990s, 12-year-old hip-hop-loving Eddie Huang and his family are adjusting to their new lives in suburban Orlando, staying true to their family values as they pursue the American Dream. As the family continues to settle in, they excitedly celebrate all of the important holidays--Halloween, Huangsgiving, Christmas, and, of course, Chinese New Year. Dad Louis has turned the once-struggling Cattleman's Ranch into a successful steakhouse. Mom Jessica keeps her boys in line yet still finds time to partake in neighborhood gossip. And Grandma Huang may be confined to her wheelchair, but she never misses a beat. Eddie and his posse are navigating middle-school angst. Middle brother Emery continues to thrive in school and on the tennis court, and baby brother Evan can still do no wrong.
