{"title":"Amaury Temporal","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"como-um-rei-na-franca","title":"Like a king in France","description":"For over 50 years, Amaury Temporal and his wife, Maggy, have been planning their December vacation since July. Their destination? France, always. But never in the same way. With each trip to the country, they try to discover a new place. A member of the Confraternity of Gastronomers since 1973, Amaury discovered a way to experience the cuisine and wines of the country's most diverse regions without breaking the bank. These journeys and experiences are revealed to readers in Like a King in France, a kind of affectionate gastronomic tourist guide, the third book in a series that began with Of Wines and Roses (1992), about French wines, and continued with Good Time in France (2004). With these delicious tales, the author narrates what he calls \"deep France,\" its small towns, villages, and its people. As usual, the couple recommends renting a house in the countryside during the off-season to experience the daily life of these regions more authentically. While Amaury dedicates himself to gastronomy, winemaking, farmers' markets, markets, and producers, Maggy focuses on castles, churches, monasteries, and monuments in general. The regions visited this time are Sévérac-le-Château, Fréland, Megève, Neuil, Magny-le-Freule, and Cluny. \"What matters is not necessarily repeating any of the itineraries and destinations chosen by Amaury (although it would be a good idea to do so), but accepting the need to find other places equivalent in allure and personality to those he chose. What matters is incorporating the model of these excursions as a civilized, intelligent, and... economical way to rent pieces of paradise and become temporary residents of an enchanting piece of civilization,\" as Ambassador Marcos Azambuja argues in the foreword. Thus, we discover a France of farms and medieval towns during the winter. Often, temperatures drop below freezing. Nothing a fireplace can't solve. And may pleasant neighbors help clear the snow, so you don't miss dinner at the Auberge de L'Ill restaurant, booked two and a half months in advance. All for the sake of enjoying the beautiful view from the hilltop Chinon castle-fortress, the famous gardens of Villandry, the high walls and pointed towers of Langeais fortress, and the Romanesque art at Fontevraud Abbey. Or, simply, a good Normandy cheese paired with excellent value wines. All written with expertise, from someone who truly understands the subject—comme il fault.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176293384444,"sku":"9788501075734","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/9a28549144df1ff853b7d93a3d59e48e_2435698d-7f20-4bd0-887d-14c8c499b1cd.jpg?v=1778311221"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/amaury-temporal.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
