Indian cuisine has a rich legacy of myriad faiths, history, food invasions, cultural landscapes and rituals. This book is richly spiced with the author's memories and personal stories bringing the flavors of India alive. The narrative is peppered with food stories of India, the place of food in sacred worship, food etiquette, and taste memory. When the author travels through diverse regions, she explores food rituals, myths and traditions.

A good overview of Indian cuisine.

Was expecting to be more detailed. Its a general summary of Indian cuisine. Its a good book for non Indians who want to know more about Indian cuisine in general. But, as an Indian reader, I was looking to hear more stories about dishes, their histories.
