After a decade living in the United States, Asori Soto returns to his homeland of Cuba to search for the missing flavors of his childhood — a journey to discover culinary traditions long thought lost due to the hardship that Cuba survived after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Soto embarks on a road-trip adventure all around the island, visiting regions so remote that you can only arrive by raft, horseback, or swimming. His journey will leave your mouth watering as we go from the middle of nowhere to the cities in order to rediscover the culinary roots of an exciting Cuba in a time of change.
"Soto’s love for his homeland is unmistakable. His motivation to capture the stories of his people and share them with the world is a treat for those of us who love food and history and how the two intersect." — Forbes
