Wonderfully written with such vivid culinary imagery that you can't wait to try the recipes the author's included at the end of the book. Each chapter begins with a section from a folk tale and sets a beautiful tone for the book. The love story is very innocent, especially since the man and woman are 39 and older, but in the end it's very sweet. This book is not for those readers who need non stop action, but I found it to be a very enjoyable read.
