pickAs a kid I used to read cookbooks and imagine making a banquet with every recipe in the cookbook. There was a Disney brand cookbook I especially liked.
This is like that. A reading cookbook, not a practical cookbook. Came out in England after WW2 rationing, and dramatically changed English cooking.
It is Moroccan for date night. The Raven Boys may get read more later this evening.

Has anyone else read this book? Strictly speaking it's a cookbook (from 1950) but it is such an entertaining read in its own right. I'm no foodie, but I'm loving it.
