If Peta hadn't known of her Irish ancestry, her love of potatoes would have betrayed it.

Peta always connects with a place through its food, and in visiting the country of her forebears she set herself a difficult task. But it didn't take long for Peta to find the world-class restaurants hidden up windy cobbled streets, to savour the delights of grand country cooking, high quality primary produce and seafood from sleepy fishing villages.

She dances her way between such traditional fare as Guiness, barmbrack and black and white puddings and refined fusion dishes of roasted tomato and goat cheese charlotte with lentils and basil oil and cured wild salmon topped off with slugs of fine Irish whiskey.

In this wonderful account of travelling through Ireland, Peta searches for its gastronomic heartland, introduces us to her intriguing relatives, discovers her other love - music - is intricately intertwined with Irish social life and eating habits and spins tales both traditional and true.

Included with this book is a CD with four Irish songs sung by Peta.
