Historically, Latvian food was considered simple and seasonally geared to a climate that ranges from very cold in winter, to hot in summer.  Today, that has all changed.  A new generation of energetic and creative chefs have made the cuisine exciting, delicious and absolutely world class.  Latvia's fertile land and clean waterways nurture fabulous produce, much of it organic, and the new generation of chefs love showing it off.   Traditional recipes have never tasted better, and innovative chefs are coming up with brand new dishes to attract clients to their fine dining establishments.    To further delight the gourmand, wine lists are now perfectly matched by well trained sommeliers, and locally brewed craft beers are abundant and superb.  There has never been a better time to enjoy eating and drinking in Latvia!
