In Goulding's latest work, the former
Men's Health food editor and coauthor of the best-selling "Eat This, Not That" series explores the food and culture of Spain. Part narrative, part how-to guide to eating in Spain (without this book you are doing it wrong), Goulding weaves stories and observations into an organic mosaic that earns its subtitle. In nine chapters, readers are taken on a tour of all of Spain's regions, gaining insight into the country's culinary traditions and practices. The pace and rhythm of the text are just right, combining handy tips with beautiful photos that results in an elusive pairing of bracing immediacy and "all the time in the world," which makes for the best memories, at home or abroad. The second book in the series,
after Rice, Noodle, Fish: Deep Travels Through Japan's Food Culture, this volume was born out of a collaboration between acclaimed digital travel magazine
Roads & Kingdoms and celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain.
VERDICT Deeply satisfying for the armchair traveler, this can't-miss book should be required reading prior to visiting Spain.
