7000 Islands: A Food Portrait of the Philippines
"...a lush collection of Filipino food, life and culture. With stunning photos (she took them herself!) of not just native dishes but people and places that lend a richness to the recipes within, the book offers juicy cultural tidbits like the tradition ofpasalubong(small souvenirs you bring home for friends and family), local fables and lore, and a bit of historical context for a full, well-rounded picture of Filipino life and cuisine. Our favorite part of the book is her take on local dining culture..." -Audrey Magazine
