I'm beyond biased when it comes to Alex Kapranos so yeah, I loved this book.
It's a short, funny, enjoyable read.

Un livre qui donne envie de bien manger, de voyager, de cuisiner et d'écouter Franz Ferdinand !

This book is a compilation of articles that Kapranos wrote while on tour as the lead singer for Franz Ferdinand. The articles were published in real time in the Guardian, and I heard about the book on NPR, where Kapranos was interviewed and it peaked my interest. As someone who has cooked in a real kitchen, I feel a kinship with others who have gone through the highs and lows. And that experience will forever color how I think about food, and how I eat out, as it has also done for Kapranos. Some of his articles here are really short, and might be more interesting if they were longer, more in depth. The writing is unusual and often inspired and often reads zen like (almost like a good hiku), but a few times was a little too cutsey as well. Nice quick read for anyone interested in eating around the world.
