The tempting taste of Austria

Sorry - I like alliteration. You could say 'tantalising taste', I suppose.
Peer comment(s):
agree Lancashireman : Acutely appetising Austria (Yum yum, I could gobble the whole Alpenrepublik up.)

Thanks. I'll send you a Rennie or two. :)
agree Veronika Neuhold : Great!! I overlooked this one before posting my answer.
12 hrs
Küss die Hand, gnä' Frau. ;-)
agree Michele Johnson : Or even just "A Taste of Austria"? This avoids the gourmet pitfall and Andrew's issue with Epicurean above.
21 hrs
Thanks Michelle. Good point! But surely we should grant the customer just a tad of "Schmaltz"? (nicht böse gemeint, Leute) ;-)

disagree Michaela Pschierer-Barnfather : The book is about Austrian cooking and food, so this title would be misleading

Austria - A Country to Savor

Could be one translation
Peer comment(s):
neutral Lancashireman : Well that cuts out the British readership straight away. They would have to do a double-take to realise that ‘Savor’ actually means ‘savour’. Incidentally, the same goes for ‘vacation’ (above). Brits always go on ‘holiday’.
21 mins
I went with the US-spelling but it could of course be adjusted according to the intended market.

Austria - Paradise for Connoisseurs

another suggestion

agree Harald Moelzer (medical-translator)

Herzlichen Dank, Harald!
neutral Textklick : Connnoiseurs of what? Mozart, skiing, wine 'wellness' or Kaiserschmarren. A bit vague IMO.
1 day 34 mins
IMO that is pretty clear on the cover of a cookbook.

Epicurean Austria

Another one to savour...
Good luck!

Peer comment(s):
agree Michele Johnson : Succinct and I like that both words begin with a vowel sound.
11 hrs
neutral Lancashireman : If Wiki is to be believed, this formulation understates the case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicureanism “...a state of tranquillity and freedom from fear (ataraxia) as well as absence of bodily pain (aponia)…”

Gourmet Austria

This keeps the style of the original and is broad enough to cover the fact that the book deals with food and wine.

Peer comment(s):
agree Steve Poynter

agree Lancashireman : The suave option.

neutral Textklick : The book also includes non-gourment items e.g. 'Bauern- und Almküche über die bürgerliche Hausmannskost'.

neutral Michele Johnson : I'm with Textklick - Hausmannskost ain't exactly gourmet, is it?

Delicious Austria

Mmm -ich krieg schon Heimweh- Marillenknödel, Sacher, Schwarzbrot - einfach delicious eben!

Oder mit Alliteration vielleicht auch: Appetising Austria

But of course! And maybe a Schnapserl? Thank you.
neutral Michele Johnson : My only complaint here is that this sounds totally flat to me as a book title - doesn't grab me, nicht werbewirksam?
