JENNIFER OLVERA is a food writer, recipe developer, and author of the definitive Food Lovers' Guide to Chicago. Having written her first recipe on an index card when she could barely hold a pencil, she's dedicated her life and career to cooking and enjoying food. Never one to be told "Eat your veggies,"--or, frankly, meat--she's traveled the globe sampling ingredients and stuffing her suitcase with edible souvenirs along the way. For years she penned the popular "Sunday Supper" column for Serious Eats and currently contributes features to the Chicago Sun-Times, Los Angeles Times, Frommers.com, and more. This is her fourth book.
