.Spanish Bar and Restaurant Cooking
City Travel Guides > Books > Mediterranean
by: Maria Ballinger-Solis, Natalia Ballinger-Solis

May 30, 2003
As the title suggests this book has a good selection of Spanish bar and restaurant cooking recipes - many of which are made up from a large assortment of paella variations but rightly so as this is what you get in tapas bars and restaurants.. The author has captured many of the basics and simplicity of some popular Spanish recipes, a good book to have in the kitchen especially for the paella enthusiast

.Flavours of Greece
City Travel Guides > Books > Mediterranean
by: Rosemary Barron

May 31, 2004
I came across this very interesting cookery book recently. I gather that it won a 'Best Cookery book on Foreign Cuisine (in English) at the Worlds Cookbook Fair recently.I have prepared over 30 recipes from this excellent book and we have enjoyed each one. Having travelled in Greece and Cyprus(Greek part) I have always enjoyed the food that is to be found outside of the cities. This is the first recipe book I have found that not only provides recipes, but superb background information on the past history of the Country. It probably takes a writer who was born outside of the Country they are researching, to give such a credible overall view of its cuisine. I remember reading some brilliant reviews in the Press about the author's cooking school ... Read More:

.The Foods of Sicily and Sardinia
City Travel Guides > Books > Mediterranean
by: Giuliano Bugialli

July 12, 2002
My household is full of eaters who are allergic to dairy products - but are Italian and love Italian food. Bugialli's book on Sardinian cooking saved the day. This book lets US-based cooks, using common (or easy to find) ingredients, create authentic Italian dishes that taste wonderful and are virtually dairy-free. The desserts section, of course, relies fairly heavily on dairy products. But the flavors provided by the main courses are so intense and clean, you can skip dessert and still be completely satisfied. Grazie, Signor Bugialli!

.Lonely Planet: World Food Italy
City Travel Guides > Books > Mediterranean
by: Matthew Evans, Gabriella Cossi

March 01, 2000
When it comes to touring Italy people often get trapped between ancient buildings, paintings and sculptures, etc. But to really get to know a country's culture you have to taste it! You might even say that you already know the Italian cuisine, that you eat it every day at "Mario's pizza place" or something like that, but Italian food is not only pizza and pasta and especially not real Italian when seasoned with ketchup! The Italian cuisine is rich, colorful and delicious.
Da gustare!
It is important to say that this is not a cookbook, it is a guide, and a very good one, for people who want to know better the Italian cuisine and its restaurants.

The author's opinion about eating in Italy being a revelation is not only ... Read More:

by: Patricia Wells

I sought out Trattoria after picking up and using Patricia Well's french cookbook, Bistro. Trattoria works for italian cookery in the same way that bistro works for French - taking informal restaurant style dishes that are perfect as delicious home cooking dishes.
