作者簡介
As a farm boy in rural Missouri, John Verlinden never imagined that he'd grow up to be co-owner of Mucho Gusto Cafe & Collectibles or that he'd write ''To Cook is To Love'', a basic Latin food cookbook. But, when he met Mami Aida, and tasted her food he was addicted.John has worked in food businesses for much of his life, and in every capacity from busboy, to waiter, to bartender to chef to owner. With Cuban food, he found a special connection.A food writer and educator, he created a healthy Latin cooking workshop for dieticians and trainers at Mass General Hospital, and developed a culinary arts program for inner city youth. His other passions also keep him busy -- consulting with small businesses, advocating for humanitarian, health & nutrition, social & political issues in his community, or working as a volunteer bringing friendship and material goods from the U.S. to the people of Cuba. John resides in Brookline, Massachusetts with his husband of 28 years. ''To Cook Is to Love'' is his first book. Author's Home: Brookline, MA
