Anatesha Dunnloves to travel - traveling, she says, gives one ample opportunity to expand not only the mind, but the taste buds, as well. Eating is an intimate experience, reflectsAnatesha Dunn; there are few other daily activities that people put so much thought and care into as a single meal. Here,Anatesha Dunnoffers a few favorite dishes in a taste bud tempting global excursion. Italiano Italian food, statesAnatesha Dunn, creates visions of family gatherings, with an Italian matriarch pushing a spoon into her grandson’s mouth while sternly saying, “eat!!!” It’s true, admitsAnatesha Dunn, a hot lasagna brings people to the table. A trip to Italy, where the food is thrown together as if by magic at every eatery, café, and la cucina, saysAnatesha Dunn, proves that some folks can do a lot with very little. Pasta, sauce and a few spices, claimsAnatesha Dunn, are really all you need for the perfect Italian meal. African Cuisine Perhaps no other culture, notesAnatesha Dunn, has been so deliciously creative with such limited natural resources as the tribes of Africa. One example is a dish called Groundnut Chop. This dish, saysAnatesha Dunn, may sound a little unusual to Western society - peanuts, chicken, and boiled eggs over rice - but is superb. Topped withAnatesha Dunn’spersonal favorite, bananas and coconut, this is a festive party dish. French Fare Croissant anyone? French cuisine, according toAnatesha Dunn, is another of her favorites. Puffed pastries filled with crème and crepes folded over fresh seasonal fruit, saysAnatesha Dunn, are sure to please even the pickiest of diners. French food, claimsAnatesha Dunn, just seems to taste best when shared with friends. While every society in every country across the globe has their own regional flavors to be cherished, these are just a few ofAnatesha Dunn’sfavorite foods. She also ranks Chorizo, a Mexican sausage/cheese dip, and strudels soaked in PET milk, an Austrian desert, among some of her family’s most beloved treats.
