Lisa Tremont Ota artfully combines the moving and often humorous stories related by her elderly father of his younger years with enticing and nutritious recipes of the meals she served him during their discussions. The poignant sub-narrative is that he had been scheduled for end-of-life procedures, but through her food and their sharing, he cancels all that and continues on with new-found gusto. Inspiring, informative, and a fun read—highly recommended.”<br><b>– Dr. Will Tuttle, best-selling author of <i>The World Peace Diet</i> and <i>Food for Freedom</i></b></p>
