By Jacqueline Church Simonds - Aromas y Sabores Publishing is proud to announce the launch of their popular guide book
Food and Drink in Argentina: A Guide for Tourists and Residents, a full- color, pocket-sized personal guide to the flavors and special nature of Argentina.
Originally written for English-speaking new residents of Argentina and available solely in that country, Food and Drink in Argentina did exceptionally well in its market. Co-author Dick Tripp says:
"It's time we told American tourists about the culinary and vinous delights of Argentina. It's so different from Mexico and other South American travel experiences most people expect. It's not just the language-they speak Portuguese-but their entire heritage; besides the native Inca and GuarinÃ, Argentineans are descended from European and Middle Eastern immigrants as well. Argentina is a country like no other."
Food and Drink in Argentina features:
- Dictionary of food terms
- How to pick a great restaurant within your budget
- A guide to the fabulous Argentinean wine vintages
- Information on exploring Argentina's wine country
- Cultural and etiquette guide
- Advice for those on special diets
