The Plagiarist in the Kitchen by Jonathan Meades

This 'anti-cookbook' collects of 125 of Meades's favourite recipes, combining polemic with indispensable culinary advice
  • ‘I adore Meades’s book. . I want more of his rule-breaking irreverence in my kitchen’ New York Times
  • ‘You can read it purely for literary pleasure, but Jonathan Meades makes everything sound so delicious that the non-cook will be moved to cook and the bad cook will cook better’ David Hare, Guardian
  • ‘Witty, forthright and full of excellent recipes’ Spectator
  • ‘Meades is one of our most eloquent and excellent iconoclasts . . . Although the prose is as opinionated and elegant as you'd expect, this is a brilliant, magnificently old-fashioned cookbook’ Mail on Sunday
  • ‘Defiant, playful, and possibly punch drunk as ever’ Times Literary Supplement
  • ‘A wonderful cookbook . . . Defiantly and hilariously unprecious, even as it demonstrates on every page the author’s discernment as a gourmet’ Guardian
