Kylie Please everyone's taste buds - buy this game! My boyfriend and I moved in together at the start of the year and we've found we're not going out nearly as much as we use to. These days we much prefer to stay in and host dinners with our friends. Wanting to expand my repertoire, I went browsing for cookbooks online and discovered The Art Of Food Conversation and thought it sounded interesting. Not only has it opened us up to new delicious foods, but also allowed us to easily share our likes and dislikes with one another, meaning everyone enjoys themselves - even the fussiest of eaters. Lindy Martin Great gift that keeps on giving!! A friend of mine is a whiz in the kitchen and I thought she'd just love this game - and she did!! For years she'd been telling me she would teach me how to cook, and playing this game together has sparked my interest and provided an easy transition into a world beyond packet foods and take out.
