Final Cover For "Tomb Raider: The Official Cookbook and Travel Guide" Revealed

This week Crystal Dynamics revealed the final cover for "Tomb Raider: The Official Cookbook and Travel Guide". 

The cover art features a popular and traditional Peruvian dish called Lomo Saltado, which "comes from a unique culinary tradition called Chifa - a hybrid food invented by Chinese immigrants who settled in Peru around the turn of the 20th century". The dish includes marinated strips of sirloin steak, onions, tomatoes, french fries, among other ingredients, and is served with rice. Accompanying the dish on the cover is two handmade props; the Scion by @christophecroft, and Lara's axe by @MaxTRSCosplay.

Originally revealed in mid-March, the cookbook celebrates the adventure and diversity with culinary dishes from Lara's travels. There are forty recipes in total, including "power snacks for energy on the go, appetizers, entrees, drinks, desserts, and meals with franchise ties". Some of the revealed dishes include Ceviche from Peru, Kathi Rolls from India, and Beans on Toast from England.

Inspired by local cuisine, the recipes have been replicated by Tara Theoharis, the creator of The Geeky Hostess, and the author behind "The Minecrafter's Cookbook" and "Break an Egg! The Broadway Cookbook". The text is by Sebastian Haley and Meagan Marie, both very familiar names, with Meagan's name being a recent addition on the cover. The two also worked with Official Fansite Owners to create a travel guide, showcasing the best places to go while visiting their home countries.

"Tomb Raider: The Official Cookbook and Travel Guide" is currently available for pre-order and is due to release on October 26th 2021, published by Insight Editions. (You can see the old cover, HERE!)
