One of the best things about travel is the FOOD! Eating local cuisine can tell you a lot about the culture. Being Portuguese, I know that lots of love goes into our food and that the best memories are made around a dining room table. Since we’re not using our passports right now, a great way to “travel” is to discover new places through their food. I love to gather my family in the kitchen, put on some music, and start giving everyone a task of chopping, measuring, stirring, and tasting. Here are a few of my favorite cookbooks.
