Reviews

Beautiful styling sets Andina apart, beginning with its cover, which has the look and texture of hand-painted ceramic tiles. Inside, gorgeously styled dishes dance across the pages in an enticing rainbow of colors. Morales's reverent stories of visiting markets and chefs in the Peruvian Andes cap the perfect gift for the would-be world traveler in your life.
