International Cuisine provides comprehensive coverage of cuisines found throughout the world not only through recipes and techniques, but also through coverage of the history, culture, geography, religion, and locally grown ingredients that influence these various cuisines. Mr. M. PONNILANGO demonstrated this with a motivated group of second semester students. The students really enjoyed the learning experience.
