“EAT SMART Guides is the winner selected to represent the U.S. in the Series category.”–Zhang Yaping, Gourmand World Cookbook Awards
ABOUT THE EAT SMART SERIES:
The EAT SMART Guides explore the cuisines of foreign destinations. To date, guides are available for Brazil, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Morocco, Norway, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Sicily, and Turkey.
Never out-of-date, these informative and comprehensive guides contain food history, insight on regional specialties, contributed recipes to preview the tastes of the country, useful phrases, handy shopping tips, and two extensive, bilingual dictionaries to simplify navigating menu and market. Also included are a cross-referenced index and a bibliography.
The guides are all about “what” there is to eat. People who travel for business or pleasure now can easily determine what’s on the menu, what’s in the market, what’s on their plate, and what they can ask for as they travel. Dining out in a foreign country no longer needs to be gastronomic guesswork.
