About this product

Product Information

In this debut memoir, a James Beard Award-winning writer, whose childhood idea of fine dining was Howard Johnson's, tells how he became one of Paris's most influential food critics My Place at the Table is the story of how a timid Connecticut boy grew up to be a bon vivant and the dining critic of the largest newspaper in the French-speaking world. It is also a touching and funny coming-of-age story about the healing role of food. Until Alec Lobrano landed a job in the glamorous Paris office of Women's Wear Daily, his main experience of French cuisine had been the occasional supermarket eclair. An interview with the owner of France's best cheese shop for his first article nearly proves a disaster because he speaks almost no French. As he slowly rises to become the taste arbiter of the world's best food city, Lobrano describes the lessons learned from leading culinary figures, the dining revolution caused by the birth of the modern bistro, his favourite and least favourite restaurants and most memorable meals, what it's like to write for the French, and why our show-off culture is bad for food. AUTHOR: Alec Lobrano writes regularly on food and travel for many publications, including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Bon Appetit, Food & Wine, and Conde Nast Traveler. He has appeared on CBS Morning News, the TODAY show, Chef's Table, and Iron Chef. He lives in Paris.

    The seller kindly got in touch to say the book I ordered did not meet the quality advertised due to being found to be in a poor condition at the packing stage. Unfortuntely no replacement was available and would I like to pick a book of equivalent value from the marketplace - which I did. That book arrived safely and was in the condition advertised. I have used this seller many times before and I am grateful for their quality control decission, rather than send me a damaged book. Will use again.

A top notch seller who always gives their best. 5🌟 all round πŸ‘
