My Abuelo's Mexican Feast, the follow-up cookbook to My Abuela's Table, is an illustrated journey back to Mexico's past, tracing the life of Daniella Germain's Abuelo (grandfather) and his love affair with food. Beautifully illustrated throughout with hand drawn watercolour illustrations, this book is both a lovely keepsake and cookbook.
From Street Food to traditional Ranch Food to Mexican Sandwiches are more, the chapters of My Abuelo's Mexican Feast are based (chronologically) around the different stages of her Abuelo's life. Recipes and brief anecdotes depict what his life consisted of, as a child, selling sweets and pastries on the streets to help support his family and later helping his father in his modest fishing business, to helping his stepmother's bake for the local bread shop.
