Save Me the Plums: My Gourmet Memoir by Ruth Reichl

adventurous inspiring reflective relaxing fast-paced

4.5

I picked this one up on a whim, recommended to me after reading another food memoir. And let me just tell you: it was a joy to read!

As a foodie, Save Me the Plums was a joy to read. Ruth's love of food (but also her job at Gourmet) came alive in her writing. I could almost imagine the tastes and sights and smells of what she described. Was also pleasantly surprised with the recipes that are shared!--looking forward to making some of them. I would highly recommend Save Me The Plums if you're a fellow foodie, cooker, baker or lover of Gourmet. You'll be in for a treat.
