A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

R. W. Apple Jr. was celebrated for his political writing at The New York Times as a correspondent and bureau chief. But whenever possible especially on assignment he went in search of the world s most wonderful food. FAR FLUNG AND WELL FED is the best of legendary Times reporter Apple s food writing, moving from America to England, through Europe and then into Asia and Australia to recount extraordinary meals, little-known facts, and the provenance of some of the world s most excellent foods. Each of the fifty-five essays presents a world in miniature, from the origin of an ingredient in a dish, to its history, to the vivid personalities including Apple s wife, Betsey who cook, serve and eat those dishes. FAR FLUNG AND WELL FED is a classic collection of food writing lively, warm and rich with a sense of place and taste.
