More about the book

Many people admit that they travel, in large part, to eat, to break bread with strangers and leave the table with friends, to discover the world through the medium of cuisine.

Notable authors found in the book include P.J. O'Rourke, M.F.K. Fisher, Peter Mayle, Colin Thubron, and Rory Nugent.
