Product Info Reviews

Description:

Food Markets of the World is a deliciously literate, enticingly informative tour of 60 markets ranging from the famous Pike Place Market in Seattle, Washington, to Rosari, a village market in eastern Java. The book stimulates all your senses, just like the great markets Mimi Sheraton presents. She takes you beyond the sight of heaped produce and fresh fish to describe the smells and sounds and share historical and cultural reflections. Nelli Sheffer's photographs show the life of each place, such as a Delhi spice vendor asleep among overflowing sacks of fiery red chilies and heaps of burnished orange turmeric. Recipes and information about specific foods are woven neatly into the text.
