DESTINATION DINNERS: A DELICIOUS GIFT THAT TURNS DINNER

INTO A CULTURAL CELEBRATION

 

With the rising costs of travel and entertainment, people are looking for a creative way to bring the flavors of the world into their own homes. Destination Dinners Recipe Kits bridge the time gap between the too-busy home cook and his or her desire to create an authentic dish from an intriguing global destination for family or friends. 

Destination Dinners Recipe Kits are elegant, beautifully boxed gifts that provide the home cook -- whether novice or expert -- with pre-measured hard-to-find ingredients needed to prepare an exciting dinner from around the world, a shopping list for fresh ingredients like chicken and beef, cooking instructions and tips, as well as fascinating cultural information that lends an air of adventure and celebration to those gathered for the meal.  

 

Whether considering a gift for oneself, a family member, business associate, friend, new neighbor or a traveler who is soon to depart or has just arrived home, Destination Dinners provides a perfect itinerary for culinary exploration. Each boxed kit is elegant and sophisticated both inside and out, with the sleek good looks reminiscent of a gift from a modern art museum store. Destination Dinners Recipe Kits are $25 and are currently only sold online.

 

Who will enjoy Destination Dinners?

• Anyone who cooks. Anyone who eats. Anyone who is adventurous. And, of course, foodies with a global appetite. 

• The career person who seldom cooks. Those who rarely have the time to cook but still want to make an occasional culinary splash will appreciate Destination Dinners. By providing the hard-to-find ingredients, the infrequent cook is spared having to purchase quantities of costly spices it might take years to use up.  

• Travelers. Give a gift of taste -- a sneak preview of a trip abroad or bring back fond memories of a trip overseas.

• Those on their own for the first time. That first kitchen may be tiny, but it can also be intimidating. What better housewarming gift than a Destination Dinners kit?

• Brides-to-be. Beautifully packaged in a bright red gift box, a Destination Dinners kit makes a perfect bridal shower gift. 

• Newlyweds. Pleasant meals, attractively served, can set the standard for a lifetime of nurturing and entertaining. Destination Dinners make the perfect meal easy and fun to prepare -- especially together. Dinner Party Kits and Destination Passports are especially popular gifts for newlyweds.  

• Teenagers. There is more to life than pizza … Destination Dinners can be the perfect entree into the culinary world for the teens. By taking the anxiety and guesswork out of cooking, a fledgling chef is free to learn about spices and cooking basics -- with a little geography, history and culture thrown in.  

• Mid-lifers. It’s hard for life to become boring when dinner isn’t.
