A collection of food related essays featuring some of the most beautiful descriptions and variety I've seen. Outside of the food writing world, Fisher seems more underrated than she deserves to be.

I absolutely love this book. It’s taken me much too long to finish, but truly I have savoured it and look forward to picking it up again to read. It’s about food, about love, about the love of food and love of life. Her writing is witty, biting and sensuous.
I feel like I’m over-doing the praise too, but I’m not sure that’s possible.

An obvious classic, though the lady has a tendency to wobble on a bit from time to time and you should probably take your sweet time to get through it all.

She makes me want to savor radiator-heated tangerines, and go freshly-grind some pepper. If you'd like a less doorstop starting point, the best book collected here is, by far, The Gastronomical Me--which is available on its own as well.
