Our own Amy Ratcliffe has posted an interview with the authors of A Feast of Ice and Fire: The Official Game of Thrones Companion Cookbook over on our sister site That’s Nerdalicious!
If you find yourself drooling over the feasts in Game of Thrones on HBO and/or the books upon which the series is based, you are going to want to check this out. You’ll learn more about the author’s culinary journeys in the land of Westeros—adventures you can take yourself when the book is released on May 29th.
Amy is also hard at work cooking up these recipes at home, so look for a review on That’s Nerdalicious later this month.
Head on over to That’s Nerdalicious to check out the interview.
