“Mayle’s mix of detail-rich anecdotes, mirthful com-
mentaries on the peculiarities of French taste buds
and drinking habits, and self-deprecating humor
make for a delicious read.” —The
Washington Post
“Savory, sensual, positively transporting stories about
his encounters with Gallic gustatory delights and
about his growing appreciation of the central place
food occupies in French life. . . . His descriptions of
the meals they serve allow us to practically taste the
frog legs and truffles right along with him.”
—Booklist
“Whether you’re going to France or just [out] to eat,
Mayle is worth reading.” —San
Jose Mercury News
“Armchair diners will doubtless find the fourth vol-
ume . . . as tasty as ever.”
—New
York
magazine
“Foodies and Francophiles will discover a like-
minded devotee. And all but the strictest vegetarian
will be made hungry by this book. Mayle’s form is
every bit as good as ever.”
