The Food Lover's Companion to the Napa Valley by Lori Lyn Narlock

The Food Lover's companion to the Napa Valley is an indispensable guide for where to eat, shop, and cook in America's favourite wine country destination. A compilation of nearly every food related business in Napa Valley, it is the first of its kind and will benefit those seeking a quick reference for Napa's famous and sometimes hard-to-find culinary resources. Lori has personally visited the likes of lavender farms, sheep ranches, and herb gardens. She's been rubbed down with grapessed oil, picked wild mustard, sampled burritos at 10 in the morning and gone to cooking classes and lectures, week after week to compile the most complete guide you'll find. The Food Lover's Companion to the Napa Valley takes readers behind the scenes to where chefs shop, winemakers eat, and farmers cultivate. As an added bonus, Lori showcases 50 recipes that make great use of the myriad of ingredients you undoubtedly just purchased. Full of historical references, local lore, and useful information, and nifty black and white photos from around the region, The Food Lover's Companion to the Napa Valley will be your first stop for all things culinary.
