"I went to Noma and interviewed Rene (Redzepi). We were talking
about art and food but the restaurant was closed. Everybody asked
me how was the food, what did you eat - and he basically gave me
some marmite. The best marmite I've ever had." - David Shrigley
"This is not a coffee table book....notions of 'taste' get a
grilling, while there are some fruity artist interviews....that
make for entertaining accompaniments." - Melanie Gerlis, The

art restaurants marries the nourishment of senses, both visual and
taste, along with the meeting of minds." - Chris Corbin, Corbin and
