Kitchen Table Passport is a fairly new subscription box and this is a really amazing service that I think would be especially great for families with kids. Each month, a different location is chosen and you receive a box with a traditional recipe from that area, along with the shopping list to make it, a spice or ingredient to help with cooking, and an item or souvenir from the area. In addition, you get a stack of beautiful cards with images and facts about that location (this is my favorite part and what really sets this subscription apart from others). We were sent this box for review, but I am quite impressed by what it offers and I told Crafty right away that she should check it out.
This month's destination was South Africa. I like that it was a location I don't know much about, but that the recipe wasn't way out there. I would have been disappointed to get Italy and receive a pasta recipe, for example, but I also don't want a recipe for something that would be impossible to even find at the grocery store. The meal for South Africa was bunnies, a bread full of curried meat or beans that was used during the apartheid era to sneak full meals out to people disguised as bread.
