Weekend Book Giveaway: 'Around the World in 80 Dinners'
In 2001 my friends, the award-winning cookbook writers Cheryl and Bill Jamison, realized that they had racked up enough frequent-flyer miles (440,000) to take a truly special, once-in-a-lifetime trip, literally around the world in 80 dinners. Four years later, they had a three-month travel itinerary in place that would take them on the ultimate culinary odyssey—more than 50,000 miles, to ten countries, to sample more than 800 dishes. Bill and Cheryl's entertaining, thoroughly enjoyable new book, Around the World in 80 Dinners: The Ultimate Culinary Adventure, (with a few location-based recipes thrown in for good measure) is the story of that trip. I've traveled and eaten with Cheryl and Bill, and I can tell you that they have a contagious, voracious appetite for life in general and good food in particular.
We're giving away five copies of Bill and Cheryl's book. To enter to win a copy, just tell us with a comment here what three destinations you would include on your around-the-world tour and why.
The standard Serious Eats contest rules apply. Winners will be chosen at random from among eligible comments. Comments will close at 12 p.m. ET Monday.
