Matta Book Selection Spring 2024

Brodetto galeotto

By Christina B. Assouard


Laura, Nina, e Azzurra ereditano una trattoria storica ma affrontano problemi economici a causa dell’ex marito di Laura, Mariano, che ha rubato il loro ricettario e aperto un ristorante rivale. Per salvare l’attività, puntano a vincere al Festival del pesce azzurro con una ricetta di famiglia, ignare che anche Mariano ha lo stesso piano. Nel frattempo, la rinnovata passione tra Laura e il suo vecchio amore, Manuel, offre una scintilla di speranza, nonostante i loro passati complicati. Un mix di intrighi, sensualità e tradizioni culinarie. 

Laura, Nina, and Azzurra inherit a historic trattoria but face financial troubles due to Laura’s ex-husband, Mariano, who has stolen their cookbook and opened a competing restaurant. To save their business, they aim to win at the Blue Fish Festival with a family recipe, unaware Mariano has the same plan. Meanwhile, the rekindled passion between Laura and her old love, Manuel, provides a spark of hope, despite their complicated pasts. A mix of intrigue, sensuality, and culinary traditions.
