A must read for people who care about where their food comes from! September 12, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Amy Trubek's book is really outstanding. She traces her cultural journey in different regions of the country (and France) to help the reader understand the importance of food that comes from one's own town or region. As a food anthropologist, the text is rich with examples of what chefs, farmers, and enlightened individuals are doing to connect local delicious food to the activities within their communities, in other words, how they are creating a taste of place.
