Sumptous reading

I loved the stories in Lisa Bach's book. Evocative passages that will have you reaching for your travel agent's number to experience it yourself...Or be an armchair traveler & chef, while your travel the globe, kitchen by kitchen, food stand to food stand.

I loved this book!

This is such a wonderful book! I stumbled upon it at the bookstore and thought it had just the perfect concept. Food and travel--what else do you need? The selections here are amazing, and each piece really delivers. This is a must-have for any lover of food and adventure. Remember it the next time you need that special and unique gift for someone.

Delicious!

The language of food can be as irresistible, seductive and satisfying as a dish of pasta with a glass of merlot followed by bittersweet chocolate mousse with perfect whipped cream. Ahhhh ... But, I digress. Pick up Lisa Bach's lovingly crafted "Her Fork in the Road" to experience the essence of good food writing -- the kind that evokes memories, desire and a hunger for the grand adventure of living. If you love to eat and consider travel the greatest excuse for indulging in culinary pleasures, this is the book for you.

Lovely

I read this book and wanted to travel, to cook and to share food with old and new friends. What a treat! Even if you can't get away, this book will let you escape, at least for a little while. A "must have" for those sunny spring days when the farthest you can travel is your own backyard. Well chosen pieces provide adventures in food and travel. Don't miss this book.

Sophisticated Dining Chair Travel

Some of our most enduring sense memories of travel are rooted on the tongue and in the stomach. This charming and carefully selected addition to the Travelers' Tales library of literate reflections on travel ranges far and wide geographically and gastronomically--from pizza in Jakarta to lobster tacos in Bahia Magdalena. The passages come from both veteran travel writers and talented newcomers. What the best of these pieces show is that sharing and appreciating food is a universal way of connecting with individuals in far away places rather than just looking at the views. This book makes a smart gift for travel-minded pals, actual or armchair--I'm giving a couple wrapped up with some yummy imported cheese or a bottle of Tuscan wine, or one of those little travel/picnic kits with a corkscrew and cutting board. Great for lovers of food and travel, male or female.
