‘Venusian kitchen’ is a love story about food. It's about the charm of cooking, the rapture as the fragrances are released when you lift the lid from the pan, enjoying the presence of friends and family, the deliciousness of the food served and the first sip of the wine that has just been uncorked.
Author and stylist Henriëtte Tomassen and photographer Elsbeth Tijssen both believe in the connecting function of food. In this beautiful culinary photo book the gratitude and love for food is expressed through photography, paintings, illustrations, poetry and stories. Stories about encounters, family ties and friendships, close to home or a bit further away. And with the stories came recipes.
