'Fantastic. The benchmark for great food writing' Anthony Bourdain
'The primary requisite for writing well about food is a good
appetite' Between Meals is the gourmand and journalist A.J.
Liebling's delectable account of his time spent eating and drinking
in 1920s Paris, under the tutelage of his friend Yves Mirande, 'one
of the last of the great around-the-clock gastronomes of France'.
With gluttonous joie de vivre, he fondly recalls everything from
glorious dining ('A leg of lamb larded with anchovies, artichokes
on a pedestal of foie gras, and four or five kinds of cheese') to
bad rosé ('a pinkish cross between No-Cal and vinegar'), and an
ill-fated sojourn at a Swiss slimming-clinic. Witty, tart and full
of gusto, this is a love song to food, wine and Paris. 'Liebling
transfers excitement, warmth, wit and information ... as hearty and
explicit as good Calvados' The New York Times Book Review With an
introduction by James Salter
