Everyone knows that France is world famous for their culinary delights. Lonely Planet's World Food France takes these delights and breaks them down into an easy-to-read, pocket sized guide. The first thing you'll find in this book is a map of France, with markers covering it to indicate which foods the different French regions specialize in. You'll also find a brief culinary history of France. Next, the book goes through the different types of foods, including: bread, vegetables, fruits and nuts, meat and game, poultry, cured meats, pates and terrines, fish and shellfish, cheese, soup, fungi, oils and fats, herbs and spices, jam and honey, and pastries and confections. Lonely Planet's World Food France also goes through the drinks of France, including: wine, champagne, aperitifs, digestives, beer, cider, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, water, and mineral water. The book then goes through the different regions of France to describe their culinary specialties. These regions include: Normandy, Brittany, champagne and the north, Alsace and Lorraine, the Loire, Paris and the Ile de France, Burgundy, Lyon and the Rhone, the Jura and the Alps, Bordeaux and the Atlantic Coast, Central France, Gascony and the Basque Country, Languedoc-Rousillon, and Corsica.
Other sections in Lonely Planet's World Food France include descriptions of French traditions, celebrations, and festivals; how to shop for food in France, including markets and specialty shops; French picnics; places to eat in France; eating vegetarian in France; understanding a French menu; and a guide to the French language and culture. If you're going to France, and would like an informative but handy guide to the food and culinary culture of France, we recommend that you pick up a copy of Lonely Planet World Food France before your trip.
