Carol Robertson shares her fascination with the country and its cuisine
in lively journal entries and delightful drawings, while David
Robertson's evocative photographs provide a look at the wonders of the
Portuguese landscape and culture. The result is a personal travel book
for lovers of good food. Portugal is blessed with a flavorful and
complex cuisine that brings together influences from Europe, Africa, and
the Muslim world. The simple-to-prepare dishes rely on pork and seafood
of all kinds, as well as tomatoes, olives, kale, hot and sweet peppers,
garlic, mint, and the silken magic of virgin olive oil. Treat yourself
to a true taste of Portugal.
