The past decade has seen Copenhagen make a real mark on the world's gastronomic map and it has become one of Europe's most exciting foodie destinations. Throughout the city a new cuisine has emerged: eclectic and experimental, yet respectful of Danish culinary tradition. And it's a measure of its success that the latest Michelin Red Guide awarded no fewer than 12 stars to Copenhagen restaurants - more than it lavished upon Rome, Madrid, Berlin, Milan or Vienna. British chef Paul Cunningham is something of a star himself in his adopted home of Copenhagen. It was an affair of the heart, rather than anything culinary that first took him to Denmark more than 10 years ago - he fell in love with a Danish girl while they were both working in the UK and, ready for adventure, he followed her home. Now he runs his own Michelin-starred restaurant in an iconic glass pavilion in the middle of the picturesque Tivoli Gardens - a place that's been an institution in Copenhagen since 1843. Taking inspiration from his winter globetrotting trips (the restaurant is only open in summer and on special holidays), Paul's resulting menus span the world in an exciting, ever-changing array of dishes re-written every fortnight. "PaulFood" (which won a Gourmand Cookbook Award in 2010 for the best Danish language cookbook) is his first book to be published in English. His previous books "Madjournal", "The Paul", "Incognito Royale" and "Paul's Grill" have also been ground-breaking productions. "PaulFood" contains 100 recipes organised month-by-month and spiced up with his anecdotes from 25 world-wide locations - so he goes to Paris in January, Barcelona in May, October he is in New York where he visits the best restaurants in the city that never sleeps, he goes hunting for truffles in Vilanova, as well as creating dishes at his Danish summerhouse, showing what he can do with glorious Danish and Scandinavian ingredients. The book also describes what takes place when former president Clinton steps into "The Paul" and is treated to "Lobster a L'Americaine".

Author Paul Rodney Turner the "food yogi" takes you on a journey of rediscovering food and its importance in our spiritual evolution. FOOD YOGA not only offers practical guidance on how to live a healthy and happy life by reconnecting with nature, but also introduces the reader to the power of food as a uniter and a medium for expressing our love for the divine. Food yoga springs from the belief that the kind of food we eat affects our consciousness and subsequent behaviours. All the world's great spiritual traditions have elaborate food offering rituals carefully designed to expand consciousness and all use food as a means to represent or please the Divine and to expand the consciousness of their followers. Food yoga is, in essence, a discipline that honors all spiritual paths by embracing their core teaching - that food in its most pure form is divine and therefore an excellent medium for spiritual purification.
