My Bohemian Kitchen: A Nostalgic Guide to Modern Czech Cooking (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781761500664)

Evie Harbury is a Bohemian-British food stylist, chef and recipe writer. Brought up between Bath, England, and Tabor, Czech Republic, by an eccentric epicure of a father and an avant-garde, creative, baking British mother, Evie is now an East London-based Bohemian (and has adopted some of these qualities). The day her elderly neighbor in Southern Bohemia burst through a broken panel of her fence wielding eleven homegrown cucumbers to give to Evangeline to pickle, she knew she had to write about this quirky country and its relationship with food. Evangeline divides her time between her London Fields home where she bases herself for filming and commercial work and her ""chalupa"" (cottage) in South Bohemia, where she grows vegetables, cooks for neighbors, eats goulash and writes.
