The foodie handbook

by Pim Techamuanvivit

The Foodie Handbook is a funny, informative and at times acerbic guided tour around the world of food today. Pim Techamuanvivit has toured the globe to discover the secret world of food lovers and provides not just an introduction to the world of gastronomy, but advice, anecdotes and more than 30 recipes from chefs and food personalities such as Alain Passard, Ferran Adria, Yannick Alleno, and David Kinch, among others, that Pim has recruited to help her on this mission.
