Last Chance to Eat by Gina Mallet
Drawing on many culinary experiences, this memoir combines recollections of meals and their milieus with recipes and tasting tips. It talks about the fates of foods that were once the stuff of feasts: light, fluffy eggs; rich cheeses; fresh meat; garden vegetables; and fish just hauled ashore.
