Sally Hammond

With tales of mouth-watering meals around kitchen tables and in sunny courtyards, scenic drives over mountains and alongside vineyards, and encounters with endearing monsieurs and mesdames, this is the perfect book for Francophiles, travellers and gastronomes alike.

Pardon My French is Sally's travel journal as she samples the local food, stays in local places (both on and off the beaten track), struggles with the language, discovers history and mysteries, and, of course, collects recipes en route.
