PLEASE support your local food providers and STAY WELL!
As we continue to have limited options for dining out, many of us have taken to the cooking shows and cookbooks to find inspiration in an effort to bring the tastes of the world to us.
For the younger foodies out here, Beaming Books has recently released a new book that can inspire adventures both in the kitchen and out in the world once parents say its ok to go out again.
In Let’s Eat: Mealtime around the world, Children’s Book Insider contributor (and Disney travel agent) Lynne Marie takes readers on a tasty trip around the world that is educational and mouth-watering. In addition to highlighting favorite meals in such far-flung places as China, France, Iceland, and the Philippines (SPAM- who knew?!), the book also explains local customs and (with the help of illustrator Parwinder Singh, shows off local fashion and décor as well. And while some of the meals may not be considered emblematic of the countries from which they are taken, the expansive menu may help even natives see new sides of their culinary cultures. For the uninitiated and curious, the options are encouraging and the questions that end each offering are engaging as well!
Bon apetit! Gut essen! Mangia bene! Oche tov! Kula Vizuri! Enjoy!
