GoBarging with European Waterways

Welcome to the July 2006 Lock-keeper Competition..!

win a signed copy of Rick Stein's new book French Odyssey

As reported in the June Lockkeeper, Rick Stein's French Odyssey returns to BBC tv.

Inspired by his gastronomic journey through the idyllic waterways of Southern France onboard the European Waterways luxury barge Anjodi, Rick Stein's French Odyssey explores French culinary tradition - perfect for aspiring cooks everywhere.

Beginning with a diary of his trip and then divided into 6 chapters, with classic recipes at the back, the book is illustrated throughout with stunning food and location shots.

Rick’s culinary tour on the luxury barge Anjodi takes him along the Canal du midi from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. His final destination is a little restaurant near Marseilles where several years ago he had the best seafood lunch imaginable.

Along the way he samples regional foods – from country stew in Castelsarrasin to the Montaine Noire hams of Castelnaudary. Further south he stops over in the Languedoc wine region and samples local delicacies before heading towards Marseilles via the Canal du Rhone. With over 100 recipes, Rick's gastro-tour will motivate every reader to try French cooking again and again.

We have 3 copies of Rick's book to give away. As usual, to win, all you have to do is answer a few simple questions. Answer all questions correctly and you could be selected at random to win Rick Stein's French Odyssey
