Book Reviews of The Art of Eating

Book Review: A mid-century perspective on food
Summary: 3 Stars

I thought this book was interesting. Our book group also read "The Omnivore's Dilemina". She brings a post WWII perspective to food.
The tomato soup cake was OK.

We had our meeting and each made something from the book. The author had an interesting life and has written many other books so it was a good discussion.
