Elisabeth is just starting on substack but she's a fine writer, with a thoughtful understanding of why we eat what we eat and how we do that, and a luminous presence in the International food world.
I turn to Andrea Nguyen whenever I have questions about Asian cuisines--and I have a LOT of questions. She has not failed me yet.
Mary Miller shares a traveling life with an astute eye, a joyful heart, and wide-ranging research—and this is true whether she’s walking downtown to the post office or across the Atlantic to some fabulous place. On her latest jaunt, to Ireland and (upcoming) England, she offers an astute history lesson along with travel/tour information, and a lot of laughter too.
Yes, there are lots of fun recipes and good ideas for many different salads, but I recommend this above all for Emily Nunn's astute, funny, and immensely literate take on life (including cooking and eating which is what life is really all about).
