The delights and eccentricities of the British at Table
The British are an eclectic bunch, and no more so than when it comes to food. Eating for England is Nigel Slater's affectionate and lively journey around the food and characters - we find in our shops and kitchens nationwide. Fondly remember Chocolate Limes, or Old English Spangles? Love Fruit & Nut, Dairylea triangles, pear drops and Rich Tea? You aren't alone - food is at the heart of the nation's collective memory, and in bite-sized anecdotes, Nigel celebrates British food past and present from all corners of the country. And there's tongue-in-cheek homage paid to the Kitchen Fusspot, the Voucher Queen, the Tight-Arse Cook, and the other curious characters that seem to emerge wherever there's food to be boasted about, bought, cooked, or eaten...
