One Hundred & One Beautiful Towns in Italy: Food and Wine , by Paolo Lazzarin
As a gourmand I’m always on the lookout for books that tie food, drink, locations and culture together and when they combine these features as well as this one does, then it becomes a treasured item in my library.
“One Hundred & One Beautiful Towns in Italy: Food and Wine” is one in a series of books by the same author (the others are “One Hundred & One Beautiful Towns in Italy: Shops and Crafts” as well as “One Hundred and One Beautiful Small Towns of Italy“).This is an absolutely beautiful book in which Paolo Lazzarin takes you through the various regions of Italy and their notable towns.
The towns are described by what they are in fact know for, accompanied by gorgeous photography, well written sidebars and resource listings for such things a delicacies, wines and other specialties of the town or region including the names, addresses and phone numbers of the shops and/or suppliers.If you have any interest in Italy, it’s wines, it’s foods or it’s towns and regions then you will be hard pressed to find a book more encompassing or more beautifully executed.I give it my top “Bravo’s” rating of 5 Bravo’s!
