Product Description

Review
"[Joan Peterson has] cooked up a tantalizing volume of attractive photos, true-to-life sketches, tasty recipes, and encyclopedic information on regional produce and cuisine of Brazil. Formulated with scientific precision, yet in eminently readable style, this book appeals to a broad public of travelers, connoisseurs of the exotic, and seekers of useful information on the multi-ethnic giant of South America."
--Mary L. Daniel, Professor Emeritus, University of Wisconsin Portuguese Department

Product Description
This smartly designed culinary travel guidebook opens up the world of Brazilian food to travelers, including students studying abroad, and tells how to find the most delicious, authentic, and adventuresome eating experiences there. The second edition of "Eat Smart in Brazil" comes with a new cover design, as well as an updated resources chapter. In addition, the index has been supplemented with a Portuguese translation for each English entry, making the book more useful for any traveler. The author shares the secrets she's uncovered while hunting for something good to eat - from restaurant dining to home cooking to fresh market produce - to allow you to get to the heart of the culture through its cuisine. The book also includes recipes from some of the finest chefs in Brazil. As you know, food is one of the first and most immediate contacts a traveler makes with a foreign country. Travelers to Brazil can make it a more memorable contact by taking along the easy-to-use "Eat Smart in Brazil", one of the guides in the award-winning "Eat Smart" series. The authors show that traveling and eating in unfamiliar territory doesn't have to be gastronomical guesswork.

5.0 out of 5 stars Handy and comprehensive reference to Brazilian food culture., 6 May 2000
By barbwit@unm.edu (Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA) - See all my reviews
Even if you don't plan to visit Brazil, this book is deliciously full of information to nibble your way through. Sections on cultural history, regional specalities, shopping in Brazil's markets, and recipes make up the first half. The rest of this handy-sized paperback is packed with "Helpful Phrases for use in Restaurants and Food Markets" (with pronunciations), an alphabetical "Menu Guide" with marginal notes indicating Spicy, National Favorite, or Regional Classic, and a detailed "Foods & Flavor Guide," with translations of everything you could think of to do with Brazilian food. Especially good describing local fruits and fishes. Maps, drawings, mouthwatering photos, and good Bibliography and Index too. A tasty addition to anyone's cookbook collection.
