World Food and Wine
-blog-

One of the many ways to follow your interest in food and wine around the world

Food and Wine of the World

I always find fascinating the traditional cooking and recipes, enhanced by the local wine, at the places I visit. I also feel an irresistible pull to discover everything about the cuisine of those other places I have not yet visited. That goal has been achieved thanks to the generosity in time, information, recipes, and hands on training of many, many home cooks -living the expatriate life- who never tired of my food and wine talk. All the quick notes I take come here, to this blog.

You will also find:

  • when new pages appear in this mini-world, bringing you new recipes or food and wine adventures and when we add new information or recipes to the pages already in place.
  • the most actual stories and also the most interesting ones.
  • when Fabulous World Food and Wine, our newsletter, is out.

You don't need to give your e-mail address to subscribe to this blog, you can do it via RSS feed. Right-click on the orange RSS button (see bottom buttons to the left) and then paste the URL into your RSS reader. Or click on the My Yahoo! button or My MSN or Add To Google button if you keep a personalized home page there.
