Episode 12 finds us wishing for days of travel with special guest, André Darlington, author of Booze Cruise: A Tour of the World’s Essential Mixed Drinks, soon to be released on Running Press. André got our get-up-and-go going as we talked about travel food shows. Not food that travels. That would be silly. Shows about travel and food. Yeah, that makes more sense. And we get deep into Booze Cruise, a fun-filled book loaded with food and drink from all over the world. Andre gives us the skinny (and, boy, we need skinny these days!) on all of the work (and play) it took visiting 40 cities around the globe (pre-pandemic) and exploring the bars and cocktails in them. It was almost like a vacation for us! Join us. That’s just an invitation to come along. We’re not paying! Call your travel agent.
