Overview

Omar and his family travel to a different location for each of these culinary adventures. The travel fiction aspect is enhanced with descriptions of actual sites, restaurants, bookstores, galleries and shops-including sketches, favorite lists and recipes. Diversity in race, religion, culture, language and sexual orientation not only exists within Omar's family, it is celebrated in these tales. Each Omar T book is independent, you do not need to read them in the order of their publication, though, as the collection grows, there are more references between the novels. OMAR T in MIAMI: Omar's artist mother receives one of the Wynwood Walls mural commissions, which inspires her to challenge Omar and his sister to create a cookbook so they can present it at the Miami Book Fair and double as her assistants. Sissy meets a soave Argentinian businessman who introduces her to luxury and Miami eccentricities, while Omar befriends a chain smoking, hard drinking petite New Yorker taking a break from her life as a professional card dealer.
