And they all come together

Yum
Recently, I've been reading The Map Thief and been falling in love with maps. My dad collects maps, so I've always been interested, but my interest might be growing. Of course, this set off a new idea for my third anthology: food and maps. Initially, this research idea didn't pan out, and it's still tricky. However, I have found one amazing example of a food map. And it's perfect.


What do you think if when you think of France? Any of you should go for "food and wine."
Carte Gastronomique de la France is a 1809 map showing regional foods and wines.
