Eating with the Pilgrims and Other Pieces

Acclaimed New Yorker Journalist, Novelist And Poet, Calvin Trillin Is Also America's Funniest And Best-loved Writer About Food. This Selection Of Some Of His Wittiest Articles Sees Him Stalking A Peripatetic Chinese Chef, Campaigning To Have The National Thanksgiving Dish Changed To Spaghetti Carbonara And Sampling The Legendary Louisiana Boudin Sausage - To Be Consumed Preferably 'while Leaning Against A Pickup'. Eschewing Fancy Restaurants In Favour Of Street Food And Neighbourhood Joints, Trillin's Writing Is A Hymn Of Praise To The Buffalo Chicken Wing, The Deep-fried Wonton, The New York Bagel And The Brilliant, Inimitable Melting-pot That Is Us Cuisine.
