Description:

Personal preferences of professional ramblers, 63 members of The International Food, Wine & Travel Writers Association. Some 300 brief references to dining, lodging, & traveling experiences in 35 countries & most American states, with 15 mini-chapters taking a "Closer Look" at wine regions, specialty cuisines & vacation destinations. IFW&TWA Executive Director Ray Kabaker, Managing Editor of WINDOWS, says, "Writer members contributed favorite places or travel experiences. No assignments, no commercials." The result is an eclectic alphabetical listing of reports that take the reader from Alexandria, Virginia (Gadsby's Tavern) to Amalfi, Italy (Da Barracca trattoria); from Danvers, Massachusetts (Rebecca Nurse homestead) to Davao City, Philippines (Insular Inter-Continental Inn); from Hong Kong (The Peninsula Hotel & others) to Huatulco, Mexico (Club Med's Kasba restaurant) & Inverness, Scotland (Dunain Park county inn). The "Closer Look" mini chapters include a survey of a little-known royal cuisine of India (Dum Pukht), profiles of Las Vegas, Macau & San Francisco, rundowns on pubs of Dublin & spas of Europe, a journey through the culinary landscape of southeast Asia & essays on wines of Italy & China.
