Cookbooks

A Taste of Slovakia series is much more than a collection of traditional Slovak recipes. It's a colourful journey into this small country's culture, the customs that evolve around cooking and eating, as well as history of some typical ingredients. And for those who will delve deeper into the text, there is an added bonus ...

Awards

A Taste of Slovakia is proud to wear The Best in the World title from Gourmand International. The book came second in the Eastern Europe Category at the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2018 in Yantai, China.
