Published by Abrams, this vibrant and transportive A4-sized book blends food, travel, and storytelling into a one-of-a-kind escape through the senses.

Through over 120 beautifully photographed recipes and cocktail creations, Erickson invites readers to explore flavours from her favourite places around the world — including Parisian cafés, Roman trattorias, Baja beaches, London pubs, and the Pacific Northwest's seafood-rich coastline. With each chapter set in a different destination, the book serves not only as a recipe collection but as a celebration of travel, memory, and connection through food.

Expect sophisticated yet approachable dishes like crab pasta from Rome, mezcal-spiked cocktails from Baja, charred meats from London, and fresh oysters from Seattle — all accompanied by personal essays, travel notes, and artistic photographs that bring each place vividly to life. The layout, tone, and imagery evoke a laid-back, luxurious lifestyle, perfect for casual gatherings or quiet nights of culinary exploration.
