3.0 out of 5 stars
Lonely Planet could do better,
By Nancy Sebastian (NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lonely Planet World Food Mexico (Paperback)
Since I've relied on Lonely Planet books to travel around Mexico and South America, I thought this book would give me a real "inside" look at the food of Mexico. I was definitely disappointed. It doesn't contain any information that I didn't already know from traveling in Mexico and reading Mexican cookbooks. In fact some of the information it did give was wrong - for instance, Salsa Verde is not made with Green Tomatoes - It's made with Tomatillos -a totally different fruit.
3.0 out of 5 stars
World Food MEXICO,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lonely Planet World Food Mexico (Paperback)
This is interesting but not a book I refer back to. It has a recipe for Pozole and a Mexican Culinary Dictionary which is helpful and explanatory.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A splendid introduction to Mexican food, travel & history.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lonely Planet World Food Mexico (Paperback)
Lonely Planet World Food Mexico is the first guide to provide an introduction to Mexican travel and history through a focus on the food and drink of Mexican regions, pairing a culinary dictionary and focus on regional specialties with travel advice. The combination places this pocket tote somewhere between travel and cook book, but will prove especially delightful to food fans - and with its useful built-in dictionary and phrase book, essential to independent travelers.
