A review by rachel3000
Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci

3.0

Pros: I enjoyed this book as a lighthearted read in contrast to much of the news in the world today.
I thought his description of his life during Covid lockdown and his experience with cancer was powerful.

Cons: Even though I love Italian food, Mr. Tucci and I clearly have different preferences.
The description of a timpano made my stomach turn a little bit (google it if you dare). I also found it funny that simple recipes such as spaghetti with pan fried zucchini was presented as "elevated" when that was basically what I ate in college when I didn't know how to cook.
