  One of the pleasures of travelling is sampling local food and this practical little pocket guide aims to make it easy. The extensive A-Z of food translates and explains all the local dishes and raw ingredients you're likely to find in shops, markets or restaurants - and star ratings help you make choices. There's advice on the best wines and an A-Z of other drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Going shopping? Read about the different kinds of stores and what they offer; check out what's in season; use the practical French phrases and lists of groceries with simple phonetics; try recipes for famous regional dishes. Eating out? Advice on ordering food and drinks; useful French phrases; tips on catering for babies and children, special diets and coping on a tight budget.
