from the glorious food shop olive et gourmando

The tables are turned, and I am the interviewee instead of the interviewer.

Aimee of the Montreal food blog Under the High Chair asks me the hard questions.  About food.  Glorious food.  Check it out here.

I met Aimee when I was in Montreal in July.  She generously took me on a private foodie tour of the city, which was a great amount of fun.  Lucky me…

Here are my entries.  Click on the ‘cover’ option to see the full effect.  I don’t necessarily think you can see into someone’s soul by knowing what books they read, but it is interesting nonetheless.  Plus, by seeing the books that others read, it is a great way to get book recommendations and helps with the aimless wandering around bookstores. (Although I have to admit aimless wandering around bookstores is one of my favourite things to do).

I tend to go on jags with my book reading and lately I have been on a food memoir kick.  My favourite book so far?  Heat by Bill Buford.  The writing in it is sharp as a knife, and he seamlessly jumps between trips to Italy to a famous Mario Batali kitchen.  I savoured this book one chapter at a time, because I did not want it to end.  Please Bill Buford, write more books.
