I’m completely in love with this book. It is written as letters between friends, talking about their lives and love for food. Both of their lives are changed for the better through the exploration of international cuisine. As a foodie, and someone who likes to try new foods and cook anything that sounds good, this was my kind of friendship. This is one of my new favorite books and I will recommend it to everyone!

I simply adored this book. I read it in less than 24 hours and was absolutely enthralled by the soothing, comforting, and often funny letters these two women wrote each other. Lots of talks of food, friendship, and adventures. A wonderful palate cleanser and a quick, darling read that makes me want to cook and write letters to dear friends.
