A mere two years after submitting the proposal for Tasting Rome (back in the day the working title was “Really Roman”), Kristina and I are about to release our cookbook into the wild. The official release date is Tuesday March 29, but Tasting Rome has already been spotted in a Parisian bookstore and I suspect more than a few of you who pre-ordered will be getting your books before the weekend! Our publisher Clarkson Potter is offering all sorts of exclusive gifts for those of you who pre-order and if you do so on or before March 28, you will receive a collection of photo prints! Click here for all the details and to enter and stay tuned for offers through late March and the month of April. And if you want to get in on the action, here are some links for purchasing the book online:
