520 _a This cookbook on International Menus is for anyone who loves to entertain and do the cooking at home. Whether for a small party with family members or a large number of guests for festive occasions and during national holidays, celebrations are incomplete without an array of delectable foods and drinks. Selecting the menu suitable for the occasion and guests is often a dilemma to the host. One guide in this decision-making is to serve recipes from another country for "something different" or new experience. The 56 set menus containing 475 recipes representative of 53 selected countries in Africa, Asia , Middle East, the Americas, Europe and Oceania provide detailed listing of ingredients and how to cook or prepare the food or beverage. The sample menus are carefully selected such that a recipe may be prepared a day in advance and the hosts or party givers are relaxed and can enjoy dining leisurely with guests. Suggestions for serving properly and attractively are included
520 _a and if an ingredient is not available or is costly, a substitute is recommended. Chefs, students and culinary enthusiasts will find this cookbook something different from other presentations. It is a learning experience not only for the food and drink prepared and served, but because of the illustrations about the countries flag, people in national costumes, tourist spots, famous landmarks, structures and buildings, a "feel" of the country's cuisine and culture is shared.
