Publishers Text

Saluting family, life, and food, this inspirational journey follows the memories, sights, smells, and tastes of the author’s hometown in Lugano and Costa Smeralda, Italy. With stunning photographs providing the backdrop, readers soak up the essence of the region surrounding Lugano—an elegant city clinging to the edges of a Swiss lake near the northern Italian border—and the sapphire seas of Costa Smeralda in Sadegna, Italy. Culture seekers and lovers of fine cuisine will enjoy mouth-watering regional recipes, from salami and mountain cheeses with red wine hailing from the southern Swiss valleys, to the Sardinian fare of pasta cushions filled with potato and wild mint. Dessert recipes are also featured, including the Semifreddo Di Miele Amaro, a soft ice cream from the harbors of the Mediterranean.
