Product Description
A new edition of the authoritative and appealing anthology, comprised of the finest culinary prose from the past year’s books, magazines, newspapers, newsletters, and Web sites. With food writing and blogging on the rise, there’s no shortage of treats on the buffet to choose from, including selections from both established food writers and new stars on everything from noted gastronomes to how to fry an egg, from erudite culinary history to delectable memoirs. Evocative, provocative, sensuous, and just plain funny, it’s a tasty sampler platter to dip into time and again.
Best Food Writing 2010 features top-notch writers like Colman Andrews, Calvin Trillin, Ruth Reichl, Alice Waters, Frank Bruni, and many others.
Who knew food critics can be funny? Some pieces were very amusing, some informative - all are well written. I learned food can be artistic, political, religious as well as nourishing . There are lessons to be learned and stories told. Just like a menu, you can pick the items you want and leave others for your next visit.

I find this book enjoyable to read aloud to my spouse at the end of the day when we're slowing down. Some of the ideas are intriguing although with multiple authors the writing is definitely uneven. We've enjoyed other books in the same series - the same way - read aloud to each other at bedtime.
