David Leite, a Portuguese-American, travels to Lisbon, Portugal's capital, as a newly minted Portuguese citizen and finds a city of beauty and great eats.

David Leite faces his phobia of pans with a hole in them, as he refers to Bundt pans, when he's elected to bake an Ina Garten cake for a Hollywood party.

At onetime French butter ruled in just about every pastry kitchen of note. But over the past decade, new American butters have been storming the gates.

Twenty years after writing this, David received a touching update when he discovered what happened to his first Viking stove, which he nicknamed Thor.

Molho de piri-piri, a hot sauce made from African birdseye peppers, is beloved in Portugal and is the inspiration for shrimp, pork and chicken recipes.

At a tasting of Michel Chapoutier's wines at Restaurant Daniel, David Leite learns a thing or two about wine, tasting, French food, and how to fake it.

David finds that the best way to secure his family's unwritten Portuguese recipes is to videotape his mom in the kitchen.
