Speaking Tunisian: A Love Story With Recipes - Paperback

by Dorothea Biba Naouai (Author), Khalil Naouai (Artist)

Speaking Tunisian is part food memoir, part cultural inquiry, part travel narrative and all of it a love story.

Food as language, food as teacher, food as community and peace maker. Biba and Ali come from different worlds, meet by sheer chance, fall in love, open a caf and then a restaurant, raise a family, and spend their summers in Tunisia, the country of his origins. These are the stories, the sights and smells, the flavors, and the recipes of their life together, seen through her eyes.
