Holuigue has added vignettes of the people she encountered, the conversations she had with them, and descriptions of her culinary experiences. -- A rich personal tapestry of entertaining anecdotes from Diane Holuigue's travels, the book weaves a food-lover's tale of the world's colourful cultural diversity and its relationship to food.

Come with Diane as she samples goose-necked barnacles on Canada's Vancouver Island, visits the Lyon markets with legendary chef Paul Bocuse, plucks a meal from a Danish chef's garden, or eats from a street stall along the flooded Mekong in Cambodia.

Each culinary voyage is accompanied by inspiring local recipes and Diane's easy instructions ensure you can recreate them in your own kitchen. -- Contents: Squid Inc.: Singapore, 1996; Vive le Cliche: Provence, France, 1997; Rocks Stars: Portsea, Australia, 1994; Claws and Effect: Perth, Australia, 1993; Duck the Gooey and Go for the Salmon?: Vancouver, Canada, 1994 and 1998; Easter Feaster: Cephalonia, Greece, 1986; Once upon a Town: .
