Thank you all, I bought the 4 books: - Simple French Food - Floyd on France - Bistro Cooking - Barefoot in Paris And one more: - Simple French cookery (Raymond Blanc) I do it this way because all sellers refused to send books to PNG. I have to receive them in France and then send them In PNG. Stupid! It will be too late for Christmas but it let me the time to read them and decide witch ones I send to PNG. Thank you again, Sylvain.

Liuzhou, Do you have any idea of which book could fit?

I read few sample pages on Amazon. This book looks great for us but I'm afraid much too verbose for most people of PNG. There is a saying in PNG that says that if they are so many newspapers sold in PNG the only reason is because they roll local tobacco in its paper... Anyway, I shall send this book but I am still searching for a much, much simpler one. Thank you Alex and Sylvia. Sylvain.

Hi ELFRE, I read your blog. It is exactly in the spirit of what I'm looking for but I am looking for a gift for my friends for Christmas. Does anyone knows a cooking book of that kind that I could offer? Thank you, Sylvain.

Hello all, Last year I spent two months in Papua - New Guinea. The family where I stayed was very interested in French cooking so I would like to buy them a French Cooking cook book. It must be: - in common English (not too many technical terms) - use easy to find ingredients - use simple tools - that we can buy on internet and send in PNG But keep in mind that there, they have nearly nothing! I know it is a great challenge. Thank you for the answers. Sylvain. You can see the story of my travel here: http://busmuli.chez.com It's in English and in French. At the end you see a picture of the family and of their home. It gives an idea of the conditions. :-) Sorry, it as nothing to do with cooking...
