Der er kun en ting, jeg elsker mere end at prøve nye fødevarer - og det er at prøve nye fødevarer nye steder.
Men når jeg ikke kan forkæle min passion for rejser, griber jeg en bog og forkæler mig en eller anden lænestol med ferie. At leve vicariously gennem forfattere, der skriver om deres oplevelser, mens de bor i eller besøger en by, får mig til at føle, at jeg er en del af deres rejse, læring (og spisning) lige sammen med dem.
Hvis du er en lænestolsrejsende eller en madpakke - eller begge dele - her er et par bøger, som begge vil piske dig til eksotiske lokaliteter og få din mundvand.

<p>This autobiography is not only a story about food writer Kim Severson’s relationships with food and the people who have taught her about food, but also about her relationship to the two cities where she)
Beginning with her first food-writing job at The San Francisco Chronicle, Severson takes readers on a journey through the Northern California food scene. Whether she's talking about meeting restaurant legend Alice Waters of Chez Panisse fame or her love affair with the Meyer lemon, she gives us a great sense of the California food culture.
Severson later moves to New York City to write for The New York Times, where she endures a coastal culture shock and laments the lack of seasonal, fresh produce. When she finally finds her rhythm in New York and writes about its joys (trips to Union Square's Greenmarket!), you feel like you're discovering them along with her.
