Appetite for Reading
A book club for serious food lovers
|
| |
|
Do you have an appetite for reading?
Do you read cookbooks like they're novels? Do you buy food reference books, memoirs and anything that has to do with food and cooking?
Appetite For Reading: A Book Club for Serious Food Lovers continues with the second installment in the series taking place October 2010 to April 2011.
We'll read and savour six books about food - one a month for six months. Each month, we’ll meet in a carefully selected restaurant to discuss the book. Chosen restaurants will have main courses for under $25.00.
This exciting club allows you to participate in lively discussions about each book in a wonderful restaurant setting. We will of course also discuss food and restaurants over our meal! This is an interactive club, not a lecture, so come and enjoy the chance to have your opinions heard and share in other people's impressions of the books we'll be reading.
And no, you don't have to know how to cook to join!
As a restaurant critic and food writer, I am passionate about food, books and restaurants and hope that you will join me on this adventure.
Surrounded by good food and people who love to get lost in great books, this is an experience that you won’t want to miss!
My mouth is watering already…

The Fortune Cookie Chronicles:
Adventures in the World of Chinese Food
Jennifer 8 Lee
Lee, a New York Times crime reporter, is obsessed with fortune cookies and wants to know their origin. She takes us around the world as she investigates and interviews experts, cooks and ancestral families for information. Fun and engaging, the book also covers the history of chop suey, those ubiquitous take-out containers and soy sauce. I was so consumed by the tales, I finished it in only a matter of days . And then promptly went out to celebrate with an egg roll!

Alice, Let’s Eat: Further Adventures of a Happy Eater
Calvin Trillin
If you consider yourself a food lover, you've just got to read Calvin Trillin! He's hilarious, honest and completely addictive. Writing for The New Yorker and living in Greenwich Village, New York, he and his wife Alice eat out not only all around the city, but travel to eat items such as Dungeness crabs in California and barbecued mutton in Kentucky and then he writes about them here in this engaging essay collection. He is truly funny and heartwarming, so much so that you may just want to do as I do, and call him "Uncle Calvin"!

The Tenth Muse: My Life in Food
Judith Jones
Food memoirs are great fun because you get juicy personal details along with inspiring food stories. And this book is no exception. Jones published Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, James Beard and M.F.K. Fisher too (to mention just a few). She includes 50 of her favourite recipes in the book, and tells stories about family, often centering in and around the kitchen, that will delight and inspire you. If only all memoirs could be like this!

Eat, Memory:
Great Writers at the Table
Edited by Amanda Hesser
Hesser has been writing about food forever, despite her young age (The Cook and The Gardener, Cooking for Mr. Latte, the food column for New York Times Magazine). And she's been recently named the new food critic for The New York Times! So who better than to edit this collection? These short, easy-to-read essays brings together great writers and their unforgettable stories about food: Ann Patchett writes about Paris, Patricia Marx tells why sheloves hors oeuvres and Pico Iyer explains food in Japan. You'll experience a range of emotions reading this one. And isn't that just one of the many joys of reading a collection?
