4 out of 5 stars What shines most is Ms. Shapiro's commitment   August 12, 2008
Reminiscent of the likes of a Ken Kesey magical bus trip, only without the psychotropic drugs, Ms.Shapiro's mind was instead absorbed in seeking out the next celebration of south Florida food and it's historic cultural story. I found this slim, little journal to be a fun exploration of the limitless possibilities one can experience if only you really just looked around you. "The saladettes in the wrapper bowl was born because I had to eat out at the local Publix supermarket." see page 27. This collection of historic fun facts and recipes (uncovered by Ms. Shapiro's relentless research and hands-on experiences)is destined to be a classic as it is a delightful breath of fresh air and combines tales of her research travels and the recipes she "un-earthed". It will inspire you to not just look at south Florida, but to also seek out it's delicious smells in some of the most interesting and unique places.



3 out of 5 stars A diferent approach to Americas ventre in food.   August 9, 2008
This small book is charming and informative about our connection to food in our culture. This is Ms. Shapiro's journey through South Florida and her culinary experieces. Obviously she has done a great deal of research on the subject and has presented it in a different and unique way. Well worth having in your collection of book on foods.
