description: A cookbook with a difference, The Gastronomical Tourist combines more than 250 easy-to-prepare bistro recipes with an elegant and witty remembrance of things past. Author Arthur Bloomfield serves up culinary adventures abroad, without forgetting the edible treasures in his own backyard. Along the way tales of rich, rewarding and sometimes hilarious dining?and life?experiences carry the reader to gastronomic hot spots from Corsica to California, Tuscany to Manhattan, Strasbourg to Santa Fe. Bloomfield discovers "Trouffade Auvergnate" in the idyllic pastureland of Central France, "Chocolate Souffle Caruso" on Italy's Amalfi Coast, and many more epicurial delights.
