"I really enjoyed Kiros' approach, and it was a pleasure to leaf through a wonderfully designed and presented book popping with style and color." - Portland Press Herald, "I really enjoyed Kiros' approach, and it was a pleasure to leaf through a wonderfully designed and presented book popping with style and color."- Portland Press Herald, "The writing is at once lively and musing and evokes well the areas visited. It pinpoints the various elements which together make a cuisine and culture: not just the produce of land and waters but weather, architecture, what people wear." -Gary Gillman, Beer et seq., "a physically beautiful volume, designed to look a little old-fashioned - like something you might find in the attic in an old steamer trunk that once belonged to your globetrotting bohemian uncle. The matte-finish pages are full of appetite-stirring shots that are only slightly over-propped; photo collages by the food and travel photographer Manos Chatzikonstantis evoke the spirit of each of Ms. Kiros's subject places. The recipes themselves are almost all the kinds of things that any reasonably cosmopolitan cook would be happy to tackle. They are clearly written and capable of yielding delicious results" -Wall Street Journal 'Review', "a physically beautiful volume, designed to look a little old-fashioned - like something you might find in the attic in an old steamer trunk that once belonged to your globe?trotting bohemian uncle.

Synopsis
Tessa Kiros, renowned for her exquisite food and travel books, takes us on a fascinating journey across the globe to explore French culinary influences in far-flung destinations. Her journey begins in Provence, where Tessa first fell in love with French food, and explores the Mediterranean region's links between the indigenous ingredients, flavors, materials, and traditions. She then follows the path of the early French explorers, traveling to the island of Guadeloupe in the Caribbean, Vietnam in South East Asia, Pondicherry in India, and the Indian Ocean island of La Réunion, before finally returning to France, in the region of Normandy, whose cuisine is so different from the South of France. In each destination, Tessa delves into the history and culinary traditions of the place, discovering how French cuisine has become entwined with local ingredients and traditions. The result is an intriguing collection of recipes that will appeal to anyone with an interest in food and culture., Tessa Kiros, renowned for her exquisite food and travel books, takes us on a fascinating journey across the globe to explore French culinary influences in far-flung destinations, Tessa Kiros, renowned for her exquisite food and travel books, takes us on a fascinating journey across the globe to explore French culinary influences in far-flung destinations.
