Part memoir and part cookbook, the title translates to Come! Come! This is both a calling to the table and the calling Ella herself had to travel to Turkey and Greece then back home to Melbourne. Accompanying the beautiful recipes is her tale of not always beautiful travel – the language barriers and feelings of being a foreigner in your own country. While you can just cook the recipes, knowing the story behind them sets them apart.

Felicity O’Driscoll of Cook the Books picks her favourite cookbooks from a stack of recent releases.
