\nFrom those ever-curious, ever-quirky minds behind the #1 New York Times bestsellingAtlas Obscura(R), with over 815,000 copies in print, comes an unputdownable guide that marries our endless appetite for travel with our insatiable interest in food. Continent by continent, country by country, Gastro Obscura takes up the mantle of Atlas Obscura to radically expand our sense of wonder about the world--in this case, what humans eat and drink, which turns out to be far more marvelous than we could ever imagine.

The world's largest floating restaurant. The LSD fish. A croissant museum in Poland. Focusing as much on food's place in our lives as in our bellies, the book covers history--the network of ancient Roman fish sauce factories. Culture--picture four million women gathering to make rice pudding. And travel--scale China's Mount Hua to reach a sacred tea house. Festivals--chase a wheel of double Gloucester at Britain's annual Cooper's Hill cheese rolling competition. \n \nFrom those ever-curious, ever-quirky minds behind the #1 New York Times bestsellingAtlas Obscura(R), with over 815,000 copies in print, comes an unputdownable guide that marries our endless appetite for travel with our insatiable interest in food.
