Maiden Records and Grabaseat Are Pleased to Announce: the Cookbook Tour - Europe by Flip Grater (In Stores Now) & Flip Grater NEW ZEALAND BOOK TOUR (November 2011)

Flip Grater's writing is sensuous, funny and wise as she eats, drinks, sings and parties her way around Europe. She has an adventurous and gracious eye for regional differences (and good-looking waiters) and the recipes are wonderful. I finished each page grinning and hungry. — DonMcGlashan

When celebrated New Zealand indie musician Flip Grater took her guitar to Europe, she slept on couches, took in the sights and must-sees of Europe, performed her music in seven countries - and ate some great food. Now she captures her journey in an exciting new book, describing the places, people and experience of touring.

The Cookbook Tour Europe contains 34 recipes including delectable dishes such as Globe Artichoke Pie from Italy, Potatoes Provençale in France and Pepper cookies in Sweden. The book is also accompanied by a sampler CD of five songs from Flip Grater's last two albums.

Catch Flip live as part of the latest Fly My Pretties line up and then on her NZ book tour. See below for dates and details.
