A Moveable Feast: Life-Changing Food Adventures Around the World by Don George
4.0
Now I'm just hungry.
I read this book after 7 weeks of living in Thailand and I had two very opposite, but almost obvious, feelings as I read. The first: I was starving for bread, and cheese, and savory meats, and good old Irish potatoes boiled with butter. The second: every day I'm living my own version of each of these stories, today I bought fresh mango at the market!
I loved reading each author's take on very similar stories. It's amazing to hear how all different foods in different countries can make us all feel a very particular set of feelings.
Hearing from so many incredible writers greatly increased my "to read" list yet again.
