Round the World in 80 Dishes. The World Through the kitchen window. This charming little book was first published in 1956 when people in England were still enduring post-war restrictions on both travelling and eating. As Lesley Blanch says in her introduction to a later edition `benign fate whisked me elsewhere to follow less restricted ways, travelling widely and eating wildly.` She said: `I don`t belong in England, I don`t belong anywhere, it is rather restful, I have met everybody and known nobody.` Seductive and piquant like its author, this is an appetizer for enthusiastic beginners, rather than a basic cookbook. Lesley Blanch`s gastronomic world tour includes eighty recipes each prefaced by an account of where they were first tasted,
