A culinary journey begins with curiosity about an ingredient, a dish or a tradition.

Inside the operation

Ingredients and traditions can open a door to a place.

A familiar dish can sit beside an ingredient you have never tasted. A word can lead toward a region, a technique or a tradition worth discovering.

Around the World in 100 Food Puzzles visits fifty culinary destinations through one hundred large-print puzzles, with two distinct puzzles for each destination.

Read Chef David’s exact introduction below, then explore the actual Tastes of France sample from the book.

A Little Taste of the Book

From Around the World in 100 Food Puzzles

Food is one of the clearest ways to understand a place. Ingredients reveal climate and agriculture; techniques reveal history; and shared meals reveal hospitality. These puzzles are an enjoyable journey through fifty culinary destinations.

The route moves across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, the Pacific, the Americas and the Caribbean. Each destination receives two distinct puzzles so familiar dishes sit beside ingredients, traditions and regional vocabulary.

Take your time. Work in pencil or ink. When a term makes you curious, look it up, taste it or learn how it is prepared. A useful culinary journey should always lead back to the people and places behind the food.
