brandiraefong 's review for:
Buttermilk Graffiti
by Edward Lee
Chef Edward Lee travels around the country, creating a sense of place and introducing the changing nature of food and the immigrants who brought varying cuisines with them to the United States. Ranging from Nigerian food traditions upheld in Texas to the underappreciated and slowly forgotten German influences in Wisconsin, I really appreciated the variety of essays included---plus each chapter as related recipes, some of which I can't wait to cook.
If you miss Anthony Bourdain, Lee's book reads like a slightly more polished version of Bourdain's television shows. Lee doesn't drop as many swears and isn't as rough around the edges as Bourdain, but his exploration of food, people and culture is enjoyable just the same.
