'I have yet to meet anyone who hasn't adored this book' Nigella Lawson
'Absolutely not to be missed' Spectator
'Like all great food writing, The Man Who Ate Everything celebrates much more than the journey from plate to palate . . . An excellent investment.' Time Out
Jeffrey Steingarten's award-winning collection of essays on food.
Jeffrey Steingarten is to food writing what Bill Bryson is to travel writing. Whether he is hymning the joys of the perfect chip, discussing the taste of beef produced from Japanese cows which are massaged daily and fed on sake, or telling us the scientific reasons why salad is a 'silent killer', his humour and his love of good food never fail.
The questions he asks will challenge everything you assume you know about what you eat, yet his characteristic wit imparts masses of revelatory information in the most palatable of ways. As well as his outrageously honest and hilarious writing, you'll find recipes including Perfumed Rice with Lamb and Lentils, Salt-and Pepper Shrimp and Lemon Granita.
A must for everyone who's ever enjoyed a meal - this book contains everything you ever wanted to know about food, but were too hungry to ask . . .
