The Man Who Ate Everything by Jeffrey Steingarten
Jeffrey Steingarten will stop at nothing for good food, from investigating the scientific way to make perfect mashed potatoes to what the ideal glass of water tastes like. Here the questions he asks (like "Why aren't the French dropping like flies?") will challenge assumptions made about food.
I have yet to meet anyone who hasn't adored this book once they've read it- Nigella LawsonGastronomic writing of the highest order, deserving a place alongside Elizabeth David and MFK Fisher. - IndependentHere is a great feast of a volume, a banquet of a book. It is both long and rich, full of intense flavours, new discoveries, unexpected contrasts ... Splendid. - Sunday TelegraphLike the best modern-day food writers, Steingarten's style is a mix of wittily intellectual inquiry and glorious gluttony ... Little escapes his scrutiny, humour or delight. - The TimesAbsolutely not to be missed. - Jennifer Paterson, Spectator
Jeffrey Steingarten trained to become a food writer at Harvard College, Harvard Law School, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Harvard Lampoon. He is the internationally feared and acclaimed food critic of American Vogue.
