Recenzii

"Mimi Sheraton was one of the few critics or writers on food who, had she expressed displeasure with me, would have caused me to consider quitting the business. As a chef, I feared and respected her. As a writer and observer and enthusiast--as someone who travels largely on his stomach--I can tell you that what Mimi doesn't know is hardly worth knowing. This fat, comprehensive guide to the 1,000 foods to eat before dying is just that: 1,000 foods you NEED to try, urgently. Read ... and seek." --Anthony Bourdain, author, host, enthusiast "If you love food, this is a book to read before you die! Mimi Sheraton's knowledge of the world's foods is legendary, as is the sharpness of her opinions. On nearly every page of "1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die" I've learned something new or honed my own judgment on hers. And with its links to sources and resources all over the world, I'll be dining in and out on it for years to come." --Harold McGee, author of "On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen" and "Keys to Good Cooking: A Guide to Making the Best of Food and Recipes" "There is no one more authoritative than Mimi Sheraton to help you discover "1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die." And that's because she has actually eaten each and every one of them with gusto, and with one of the world's most discerning and educated palates. This book may just become my go-to source for new menu ideas at our restaurants!" --Danny Meyer, restaurateur and author of "Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business" "Informative, evocative, and entertaining. It's a pleasure to check off the foods you've eaten and to plan to try the ones you haven't yet enjoyed." --Marcus Samuelsson, cookbook author, chef, owner of Red Rooster Harlem "Few people in the world have the experience that Mimi Sheraton brings to the subject of food. I'll be spending the rest of my days knocking off dish by dish in "1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die."" --Bobby Flay, chef, restaurateur "We are forever grateful to the incomparable Mimi Sheraton for her knowledge and certainty as a journalist and critic." --Thomas Keller, chef/proprietor of The French Laundry "I'm in awe of Mimi's ability to compile such a beautiful and insightful book, again proving why she is one of the most important food writers of our time. This book is a gift to all food lovers, a thorough, delicious guide on the best dishes and ingredients around the globe." --Daniel Humm, chef/owner, Eleven Madison Park and The NoMad "Who else would you trust on topics ranging from English jellied eel to hokey pokey ice cream from New Zealand and everything in between? Only the well seasoned Mimi Sheraton." --Grant Achatz, chef/co-owner Alinea, Next, the Aviary "Mimi Sheraton has always reminded us that eating is an activity as much of the imagination as of the palate and the tongue. In "1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die," she reaps the rich harvest of her prodigious gifts of endless curiosity, lightly worn knowledge, and elegance of style. She has provided us with a feast to be tasted and savored with the greatest pleasure." --Mary Gordon, author of "The Liar's Wife" and "Final Payments" "Gargantuan in its appetite and encyclopedic in its scope, this is "the" most comprehensive book ever written on the great foods of the world. The book every food writer dreams of writing. A tour de force." --Steven Raichlen, author of the "Barbecue! Bible" cookbooks and host of "Primal Grill" "Mimi Sheraton has written the definitive international guide for food lovers. Each page is filled with culinary treasures and surprises, presented in an engaging and entertaining manner. Reading and dining pleasure awaits you!" --Drew Nieporent, restaurateur, Tribeca Grill, Nobu, Batard "This book reads like a map to many of the great food experiences the world has to offer. A valuable addition to any food library." --Eric Ripert, chef, Le Bernardin, author "Avec Eric: A Culinary Journey with Eric Ripert" "To this non-foodie, "1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die" was a revelation--perhaps the most useful travel guide on my shelf. I'm heading to Marrakesh for tagine right now." --Andrew McCarthy, travel writer, actor, director "Mimi Sheraton is a national treasure. Her knowledge of food can't be beat--if anyone knows the 1,000 foods of a lifetime, it's Mimi." --Daniel Boulud, chef, Restaurant Daniel, New York City
