If you love books as much as you love food, you’re in the right place. The Kiosk Stack is here, serving up hand-picked reads that explore food, culture, and the way we eat.
Thank you so much, Daniela! How lovely to see Miss en Place recommended along with some of my own favourite books. "Eating to Exctincton" in particular has left a lasting impression on me. "A Cook's Book" is not on my shelf yet, but I'll put it on my list right away. Among my personal food writing favourites are the books by Ruth Reichl. I'd recommend starting with "Garlic & Sapphires" and can't wait to read her latest one "The Paris Novel". Artur Cisar-Erlach's "The Flavor of Wood" is a great special interest read that combines intriguing travel writing with insights into the fascinating influence of trees on our food. J. Ryan Stradal's novels are a safe bet regarding food descriptions. I also love Ruby Tandoh's clever and eloquent essays. I already look forward to the next edition of The Kiosk Stack!
Sarah, thanks so much for sharing your favourites! You're absolutely right—Ruth Reichl’s "Garlic and Sapphires" is wonderful; I first read it based on your recommendation! And yes, Arthur Cisar-Erlach’s book "The Flavour of Wood" definitely belongs on every foodie's reading list. Thanks as always for your other suggestions too—my reading list grows every time we talk or write.
