Her Fork in the Road: Women Celebrate Food and Travel
edited with an introduction by Lisa Bach

From the Travelers' Tales series.

Women's relationship with food is passionate and obsessive, embracing and comforting, complex and frustrating. This savory sampling of stories - by some of the best writers in and out of the food and travel fields - journeys to the heart of this age-old relationship, taking the reader from the familiar kitchens of contemporary America to the far reaches of the globe. In France, an over-enthusiastic waitress serves M.F.K. Fisher the lunch of a lifetime to sustain her on her walk to Avallon. In Tunisia, Ruth Reichl dines at the home of a local, where the meal is eaten with the hands and a dash of sensuality. And in Fiji, where the women are big and beautiful and walk like royalty, Laurie Gough encounters food as a grand and constant celebration.

"An unforgettable taste of the connection between the table and the world. "
--Alice Waters, chef/owner Chez Panisse
