"Cooking with children is a great thing to do. Children love about the culture and geography, and all kinds of things to talk," Kurlansky said.
He said he and Talia, speak the book about the process of writing and then sign copies for the readers.
"I hope that after everyone goes home and gets some with their children to cook," he said.
