Praise for A TRAVEL FOR TASTE:

“Whether you are of German heritage, have traveled there, are planning a trip, or are simply curious about customary dishes and drinks, A Travel for Taste: Germany will fill you with delicious inspiration and cultural information. It's a cookbook designed to be read for pleasure, as much as it is to provide specific recipes. . .  a most enjoyable read.”  - Ann Martin, author and paper artist, Delaware, USA

“This book is so much fun! I’m trying each recipe, one at a time, and I swear each one is better than the previous one. Besides getting great food, I’m also getting a wonderful history and geography lesson. The first recipe I tried was the cucumber salad. It was great and reminded me of the salad my Nana used to serve. I bought copies for my family members.  Now they’ll have a great cookbook and learn about Bavaria at the same time.” - Cyndie Smith, professional jewelry artist and avid home cook, Lutz, Florida, USA
