From Beijing to Rome, with Love and Pasta

On the Noodle Road

This book made my mouth water so much. I like the layout of the book and how she weaves in history, personal, and recipe description. I wish we could’ve gone deeper into her thoughts on her relationship with her husband or into the conversations and reflections on the women she met along the way. Some things are private, I guess. Either way, I’ll be keeping this book just for the recipes.
