French culinary phrases, foodie terms, and cultural tips come
together in the ultimate food-lover's guide "pays des delices"
Everyone can tell the difference between Brie and Caembert, but few
know their "Valencay" from "Pelardon." Luckily, "The Farm to Table
French Phrasebook" serves up the vital French expressions other
guides leave off the plate. From the specialty vocabulary of chefs
in gourmet restaurants to slang terms rarely heard outside a
country market, here's everything the reader needs for a gourmet
tour of France (or the local bistro ). A comprehensive language
guide for food lovers, this indispensable companion also offers a
fascinating history of French eats, complete with delicious facts
about the cuisines of every region from Alsace's pinot gris to
Normandy's Pot-au-feu. This compact, beautifully illustrated
hardcover gift book is perfect for tucking into your knapsack for a
day of sampling gourmet local specialties, or it makes a great
present for the Francophile in your life.
