Review

Booklist, 10/1/14
“This book is a menu of delicious food, colorful characters, and tales of strange and wonderful food adventures that make for memorable meals and stories.”

Kirkus, 10/15/14
“Consistent in quality and enthusiasm, Hughes again delivers a cornucopia of varietal amusements for foodophiles whose palates crave invigorating interpretations and perspectives.”

Hudson Valley News, 9/17/14
“Browse, read a bit, browse some more and then head for the kitchen.”

Bookviews, November 2014
“Plenty to enjoy.”

Library Journal, 11/1/14
“This collection has something for connoisseurs, short story fans, and anyone hungry for a good read.”

Taste for Life, November 2014
“The finest in culinary prose is offered in this new anthology…these pages delight and inform readers with entertaining and provocative essays…This book ultimately opens readers' eyes to honest, real food and the personal stories of the people behind it.”

Beverly Citizen, 11/13/14
“[A] gem of an anthology…Though this is most definitely a book that can satisfy in small bites—like a box of good chocolates—it's hard to stop at one piece.”

Opens the mind to the world of Food Writing

Best Food Writing 2014 is a wonderful collection of personal essays that all center around one thing: food. I purchased the book for academic reasons and expected just that, a book to check off the homework list. However the essays were intriguing, deeply emotional at times, and show that food writing is just as rich, diverse, and flavorful as the foods themselves. I would recommend this to anyone that loves food, personal stories, or both.

If you're a food writer or aspiring food writer, get this book. So many great stories that are charming and difficult to put down. It'll leave your salivating for the food described, and hungry for more. I loved this book, we had to read it for a journalism class in a college course, and although the whole book wasn't assigned, I read it all.
