Float Like a Butterknife Sting Like Wasabi - Jonathan Silver - Bog

You probably don't realize it yet, but you're looking at what one day will be considered classic literature, authored by one of the finest minds in the biz, a breath of fresh air in the stale world of food-writing. The day when Mario Batali's books will be used as door-stoppers or to level wobbly tables, this grandiloquent opus will be studied at culinary institutes worldwide and I'll be part of the elite group of people with dishes named after them, like General Tso and Petri. My name is Silver, Jonathan Silver, I am an outlaw gourmand, a protector of defenseless palates, I steal from the food snobs and give to the culinary oppressed. Lucky you found me, you could have browsed right past this book without noticing it. A moment of carelessness... a slip of the mouse.. it happens! So go ahead and blow your paycheck on this glorious manuscript! It's 1/3 lurid gastronomic memoir, 1/3 restaurant guide, 1/3 motivational and 1/3 fiction. (I know that's 4/3 but it's more packed that way!) It spans over three continents, four decades, five food-groups and six senses!
