Download or read book AFRICA CAFE written by FARUK BUDAK and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-05 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a Turkish traveler's solo journey across Africa, from Cape Town in the south to Cairo in the north. In his second book, a follow-up to Nine Gates of Asia, Faruk Budak tells of his eight-month adventure. Sometimes he rides on the back of a pickup truck or travels in a packed, run-down bus, and sometimes he walks along the dusty roads of Africa. Africa Café contains valuable information about each step in this journey that includes visiting the magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and structures; smelling the magical spice aromas of Zanzibar; eating tropical foods; going on safaris on the plains of Masai Mara and Serengeti National Park; walking the mysterious streets of Lamu, Africa's Kathmandu; contemplating Egypt's pyramids; and shopping in sukhs in Syria and Jordan. Budak experienced the Dark Continent's dark poverty along with its generosity, beauty, and enchantment. He experienced the absurdity of borders on a continent where beauty and ugliness, good and bad coexist. Dreams are the only guide along this breathtaking journey. In Africa, dreams meet reality, earthly travel merges with the spirit's inner journey, and the mission is completed.

Download or read book Food Culture in Sub Saharan Africa written by Fran Osseo-Asare and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-06-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East African, notably, Ethiopian, cuisine is perhaps the most well-known in the States. This volume illuminates West, southern, and Central African cuisine as well to give students and other readers a solid understanding of how the diverse African peoples grow, cook, and eat food and how they celebrate special occasions and ceremonies with special foods. Readers will also learn about African history, religions, and ways of life plus how African and American foodways are related. For example, cooking techniques such as deep frying and ingredients such as peanuts, chili peppers, okra, watermelon, and even cola were introduced to the United States by sub-Sahara Africans who were brought as slaves. Africa is often presented as a monolith, but this volume treats each region in turn with representative groups and foodways presented in manageable fashion, with a truer picture able to emerge. It is noted that the boundaries of many countries are imposed, so that food culture is more fluid in a region. Commonalities are also presented in the basic format of a meal, with a starch with a sauce or stew and vegetables and perhaps some protein, typically cooked over a fire in a pot supported by three stones. Representative recipes, a timeline, glossary, and evocative photos complete the narrative.
