A delectable journey through the culinary history of England from ancient times to today.

HERE WE ARE AGAIN, I READ A WONDERFUL BOOK AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL YOU THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT WITHOUT IT SOUNDING LIKE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE EVER HEARD ABOUT GOOD LITERATURE BEFORE, SOMEONE PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY, I BEG YOU (That being said, Patrick Bringley wrote a beautiful, beautiful memoir, and if you have ever been to the MET, are interested in visual arts or have any inclination to ever spend a day at the MET ever, you better pick up this book. Readable, enjoyable, wonderfully human, and an unexpected new favorite.)
