| Summary, etc | Food writer Anya von Bremzen sets out to investigate the eternal cliche that "we are what we eat". He journey takes her from Paris to Tokyo, from Seville, Oaxaca and Naples to Istanbul. She probes the decline of France's pot-au-feu in the age of globalization, the stratospheric rise of ramen, the legend of pizza, the postcolonial paradoxes of Mexico's mole, the community essence of tapas, and the complex legacy of multiculturalism in a meze feast. Finally she returns to her home in Queens, New York, for a bowl of Ukrainian borsh -- a dish which has never felt more loaded, or more precious. As each nation's political and social identity comes under inspection, so too does its palate. This book peels back the layers of myth and misunderstanding around world cuisines, reassessing the pivotal role of food in our cultural heritage and identity. |
