.Culinaria France: A Literary,Culinary,and Photographic Journey for Gourmets

from: Konemann UK Ltd

April 05, 2005
`Culinary frontiers are seldom rigid. Geographical, climatic and historical circumstances, however, create affinities. On the basis of these similarities we have been able to divide France into twelve provinces as regards the pleasure of food and drink. Each reflects its own individual character in exquisite specialities, some of which may well come as a surprise......It would have been impossible to include all the specialities of France in this Culinaria volume. But experts from the 'metiers de bouche' together with first-class chefs
From every corner of the land, have helped us to sketch out a new and up-to-date portrait of this gourmet nation which will be richly rewarding to everyone, whether they prefer to enjoy their favourite ... Read More:

.Culinaria Greece: Greek Specialties

by: Marianthi Milona

November 30, 2004
My grandmother was Greek Cypriot and despite speaking no English, she communed with me through a great shared love of Greek cuisine. Sadly she passed away before I could persuade her to get my favourite recipes translated. I've now finally found a book which not only provides authentic recipes and ingredients (yes, many of which really are just like Yaya's - delicious!), but beautifully presents in text and pictures the various regions, foodstuffs and people. Forget the waistline - A must for anyone who enjoys Greek food, cooking in general or would just like to find out more about the region.

.Culinaria: European Specialities

by: Joachim Romer, Michael Ditter

October 01, 2005
I bought this after having bought some of the more classic Culinaria cook books (Italy and Spain) I thought this would have similar depth of the others but all it really did was skim over some of the more traditional dishes served in most European countries. This book might be more suited for people who have never been to Europe as opposed to Europeans.

.Culinaria Germany

by: Konemann

November 01, 2006
There is nothing fancy about German cooking. It is hearty food meant to provide nourishment. That said, virtually all of German cuisine might be defined as "comfort food". This book in great detail, both in text and excellent colour photography, educates the reader that there is plenty of regional fare that is uniquely German.

.Culinaria Germany

from: Konemann

March 19, 2007
Born and bred in Germany, I love it!

This book is full of tiny little details about the eating, drinking and party culture of Germany and receipes I have enjoyed as a child and long forgotten about.

The only disappointment is that the receipes are very heavy on meat and fat - we do enjoy tasty, satisfying vegetarian dishes and are becoming healthier in our eating habits.

However, if you want to find out about Germany, not only the food but the entire culture, this is definitely the book to buy!

.Made in Italy: Food and Stories

by: Giorgio Locatelli

April 01, 2008
I bought this book on a whim whilst on holiday and now find myself reading it from cover to cover. The whole concept is to put the food and the chef in context; the book reads like no other cookery book I have come across. A whole range of ingredients are explained in short essays throughout the book (eg olives, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, parmesan etc). The recipes are split into starters, soups, risotto, fish, meat, pasta and deserts. In amongst the essays and recipes are wonderful photographs and short autobiographical vignettes from Locatelli.

I also have the excellent 'Sliver Spoon', but it is eclipsed by 'Made in Italy'. The former is a huge repository of recipes, listed in exhaustive detail. Locatelli's book on the other hand takes ... Read More:
