Now, years later, Janet and her husband have four children and run two of the most successful restaurants in Bali.In this delightful memoir, Janet shares entertaining stories of being 'gently shaped like warm rice for offerings' as she adapts to another culture and way of life. She offers insights into the ancient myths and rituals still alive in Bali today and passes on delicious recipes handed down through generations of her husband's family.Fragrant Rice shows how the love, hope and warmth that makes this island such a special place is still very much alive today.Family recipes included
