Tämä arvostelu kirjoitettiin LibraryThingin Varhaisia arvostelijoita varten.I enjoyed the book and the recipes. The first part of the book went into great detail but the latter half seemed a bit rushed. Overall a very interesting story and looking forward to trying some of the recipes.
Tämä arvostelu kirjoitettiin LibraryThingin Varhaisia arvostelijoita varten.One of my favorite genres of books to read are those that involve food. This book is a delightfully engaging and entertaining look at the stories that are shared around a dining table, which is what "sobremesa" means. There are veins of magical realism, love, and adventure throughout this coming-of-age story which enchant the reader and keep you coming back for more. Delicious!
