Publisher's Synopsis

Acclaimed food writer Anya von Bremzen sets out to investigate the eternal cliche that 'we are what we eat'. Travelling from Paris to Tokyo, from Seville, Oaxaca and Naples to Istanbul, she investigates the rapid decline of France's pot-au-feu, the misconstrued beginnings of pizza, the meeting of indigenous and European lineages in mole, and the complex legacy of multi-culturalism in a meze potluck.
