Editors Suzy Casey, Rita Goldberg and Karin Schnell compiled an outstanding group of visual artists working in Orange County, California, who also love fine cooking.  This unique pairing of fine art and fine cuisine in a worthy coffee-table tome is nearly sold out, but the highly successful Orange County edition has engendered a series in progress.  Hurry to get your OC copy, and wait for the November 2012 release of a San Antonio edition, and the 2013 release of the Palm Springs edition!
For each of these,don't stop at the gorgeous full color renderings of the artists' top personal choices--take the book to the kitchen to try out the delicious cuisine inspired by their art.
