"There hasn't been a food memoir this deliciously wicked since Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential."--"Portland Oregonian
The Devil in the Kitchen" is legendary chef Marco Pierre White's memoir of growing up working-class in Leeds and going on to become a king in the culinary world--the original celebrity chef. The first British chef (and the youngest chef anywhere) to win three Michelin stars--and also the only one to ever give them all back--is known equally for his astonishing talent and for being a chain-smoking, pot-throwing enfant terrible of the kitchen. In "The Devil in the Kitchen" he takes readers on a revealing and raucous ride, featuring some of the biggest names in the food world and beyond. It's truly a decadent feast for anyone who loves food or just a great story.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER "Unadulterated, smart, beautifully rendered, and often thrilling... This is delicious, adventuresome entertainment for the mind, soul, heart, and stomach." -Kirkus Review "Adventurous Anthony Bourdain-esque eaters and readers will savor David Moscow's every word as he travels far (Ciao, sea of Sardinia) and near (howdy, Texas plains) to learn from farmers, hunters, fisherfolk, and scientists about how our food reaches our plates." -Reader's Digest David Moscow, the creator and star of the groundbreaking series From Scratch, takes us on an exploration of our planet's complex and interconnected food supply, showing us where our food comes from and why it matters in his new book of global culinary adventures. In an effort to help us reconnect with the food that sustains our lives, David Moscow has spent four years going around the world, meeting with rock-star chefs, and sourcing ingredients within local food ecosystems-experiences taking place in over twenty countries that include milking a water buffalo to make mozzarella for pizza in Italy; harvesting oysters in Long Island Sound and honey from wild bees in Kenya; and making patis in the Philippines, beer in Malta, and sea salt in Iceland. Moscow takes us on deep dives (sometimes literally) with fisherfolk, farmers, scientists, community activists, historians, hunters, and more, bringing back stories of the communities, workers, and environments involved-some thriving, some in jeopardy, all interconnected with food. The result is this travel journal that marvels in the world around us while simultaneously examining the environmental issues, cultural concerns, and overlooked histories intertwined with the food we eat to survive and thrive. Through the people who harvest, hunt, fish, and forage each day, we come to understand today's reality and tomorrow's risks and possibilities.

'A sea breeze wafts up from every page. This book is a delight.' - Nigel Slater Both grounding and uplifting, From Coast & Cove, the new book from author and acclaimed illustrator Anna Koska, walks us through the four seasons on the English coast. Beautifully observed, contemplative and deeply personal, Anna combines emotive and evocative tales of life beside the sea with her exquisitely detailed and intricate illustrations of the plants and wildlife found in the water and along the coastline. Anna and her family moved from East Sussex to Devon in 2020 and she now finds inspiration for her artworks in the ebb and flow of the tide throughout the year, the flotsam and jetsam washed up on the shore and the creatures spotted in the air, on land and tucked away in rockpools - whether it's the haunting cry of the curlew heard while kayaking along the River Dart, the iridescent scales and pointed teeth of a hake, the mussel shells discarded by an oystercatcher, or the kelp, wrack and eelgrass strewn along the beach and pressed for posterity. A love letter to the natural world captured in materials ranging from pencil, pen and ink, watercolour and egg tempera, From Coast & Cove details an artist's year spent beside the sea. A book to savour, and a wonderful celebration of nature's cycles and minutiae.

Located in the heart of Wall Street, Delmonico s has been shaping and shaking up New York City s restaurant scene for more than a century, weathering Prohibition, the stock market crash of 1929, and the whims and demands of a star-studded clientele that had included Marilyn Monroe, Jaqueline Kennedy Onassis, and Gypsy Rose Lee. Oscar Tucci, who purchased the restaurant from the Delmonico family in 1926, is an icon of restaurant dining, whose influence can still be seen in how we eat today: he introduced a la carte dining and white tablecloths in the dining room, created the phenomenon known as the Power Lunch, and developed a strict code of hospitality, etiquette, and operations known as the Delmonico Way. This book, told through the eyes of Oscar s grandson, Max, who grew up in the family business, pulls the velvet curtain back on the grand mix of business and pleasure that went on front of house and behind the scenes, and also provides entertaining tips and recipes so you can relive the epic Delmonico s glamour at home. Each chapter is organized a style of dining that Delmonico s pioneered or perfected, so that you can host an impressive power lunch (featuring the restaurant s signature wedge salad); a glamorous cocktail soiree before a night on the town with canapes such as oysters Rockefeller, Devils on Horseback, and shrimp cocktail; and the perfect romantic dinner with a showstopping seafood tower and Rib Eye Bordelaise for two.

There is more to be gained from our daily bread than mere sustenance. Curiosity, romance, ritual, and insight can be as much a part of a meal as any of its edible ingredients. In this delectable collection of essays on fine food and drink, twenty-two renowned writers capture the gestures, the celebrations, and the moments in which food, wine, and the act of eating transcend their initial purposes to become something far greater. A window into the eating lives of a handful of our finest literary artists, Not for Bread Alone is a tasty and most satisfying delight--a true culinary classic.

We live in a world of global food. The daily meals of people in both the developed and developing worlds are being transformed by the increasing ease with which food is being traded across continents. Affluent consumers' supermarket trolleys increasingly are being filled with an array of food products from developing countries while, at the same time, food exports from the developed world are supplanting and transforming dietary systems in developing countries. Some experts suggest that the enhanced tradability of food ushers in an era of increasing choice and affluence. Others point to problems of dependency, inequality and social dislocation accompanying these developments.
Cross-continental Food Systems represents a collective effort to document and understand these issues. Containing the contributions of twenty-six leading international social scientists from eleven countries, the book presents recent case study research on how and why the food system is being globalized, and what this meansfor people and communities in different parts of the world. The book covers debates on new structures and food products, as well as detailed accounts of fresh horticulture, tropical crops and livestock.
This book fills a major gap in contemporary scholarship on food and globalization. Its emphasis on case study accounts of the connections between trade and restructuring provides texture and context to these complex and important debates. Written and researched at a time in which national governments are seeking to negotiate new rules of global agricultural trade, this book is timely and relevant. It will interest researchers in geography, development studies, agricultural economics andpolitical science, as well as professionals in the fields of trade and food policy.
