Extreme Cuisine

August 25, 2011 by DaveLeave a Comment

Extreme Cuisine by Eddie Lin Ever wonder about all these “weird” looking delicacies you see at random locations on your foreign travelers? Ever wonder about trying them? If so, check out “Extreme Cuisine”, the new book from Lonely Planet that features “exotic tastes from around the world”.

Some cuisines which are taboo in one culture are accepted in another. These are the types of food that author Eddie Lin seeks out and has highlighted in this book. Each item includes a photo and descriptions including, what it is, where it is, how it works and the “experience”. Read about delicacies from Iceland to Cambodia. The range of food is amazing; read about alligator cheesecake to maggot cheese & tarantulas. This book can be used as a good conversation starter.
