This lavishly illustrated book offers a cultural survey of the
Londoner's eating habits from 1500 to the present day.
In a series of well-researched and nicely footnoted essays, "
London Eats Out" opens the door to the public eating that was a
critical component of urban life. Attractively illustrated, "London
Eats Out "focuses on the day to day comestibles, and how they were
brought to the public; it is a fascinating and largely neglected
story that deserves a wide audience. From the Cooks' Guild Company
of the 16th century through Alexis Soyer's 19th century soup
kitchens to the modern empire of Terence Conran, London's public
culinary heritage evolves in an engaging and thoughtful work that
pulls together many different strands of culinary history in a
fresh and accessible way.
