What 'classic' books around food have I not read/bought. Here's a short list of a few I treasure: Please add any you'd recommend.
AB's Kitchen Confidential
Orwell's Down and Out In Paris and London
Nicolas Freeling's The Kitchen Book and The Cook book
Waverly Root's The Food of France
A.J. Liebling's Between Meals
Zola's The Belly of Paris
J. Pepin's The Apprentice
Ludwig Bemelman's 'Hotel Bemelman' is a must read. It's hilarious. His other book 'La Bonne Table' is my 'White Whale'. I've been looking for it in used book stores and swap meets and garage sales for years. "Why not just buy one off Amazon?". Because a new one is listed at $450.00 and a used one is $229.00. Does anyone have this book? If so is it worth the money?
