Item description from seller

208 x 280 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. 207, incl. index; lovely full-colour photographs of ingredients, dishes and settings; maps. Earlier owner's name signed on title page. Fine condition. ' "A passion for food is a gift that I love to share with rolled-up sleeves and my hands covered in flour, a rather messy glass of superb red on the side. Or picking sun-warmed blueberries on the way home from a French village market, a basket filled with asparagus, artichokes, blood-red tomatoes, lambs lettuce, fresh bread and Comté cheese over my arm " This quote encapsulates the essence of Delectable, the sharing of a food and wine journey from Cape Town, South Africa to medieval Charroux, France and all the exquisitely beautiful little lunch breaks in between. Delectable is more than just a cookery book it's about good living as much as it is about good food.'.
