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.
