Viva La Revolucion! by Fiona Dunlop
Mexico is experiencing a gastronomic revolution. A return to pre-Hispanic cooking techniques and current trends towards tapas-style eating are sweeping a wind of change through the country’s food. From Michoacan to Mexico City, from Oaxaca to the Yucatan, Fiona Dunlop, author of the highly successful New Tapas, has sought out the chefs and cooks at the forefront of Mexican cooking to discover the ingredients and techniques and recipes at the heart of this revolution. Here you will find new dishes as well as modern versions of classics. Chillies, seafood, chicken, pork, game, tortillas and tacos play a central role as do vegetarian dishes based on beans, tomatoes, avocados, squash, corn and sweet potatoes.

Nuevo Tex Mex by David Garrido
Nuevo Tex-Mex cooking, the hottest new trend in Nuevo Latino cuisine, embraces and celebrates both its zesty Latin American flavours and no-nonsense Texas personality. This is hearty food for people who are not afraid to drink a beer (or a shot of tequila) with a meal (even if it’s breakfast) and get their hands a little messy. It’s food that knows how to have fun without rolling in heavy ingredients. In Nuevo Tex-Mex, Texan chef David Garrido’s hip and innovative recipes are presented by Texan food writer Robb Walsh with lots of humour and attitude, all photographed in vivid color and spectacular style by Texan photographer Manny Rodriguez. The best thing to come along since ice cold beer, tortilla chips, and guacamole.
