The Year Of Eating Dangerously: A Global Adventure in Search of Culinary Extremes The Year Of Eating Dangerously A Global Adventure in Search of Culinary Extremes, ISBN 9780091904913 and books by Tom Parker-Bowles on sale at thebookshelf.co.nz Tired of the bland, processed pap served up in supermarkets and identikit restaurants across the UK, food writer Tom Parker Bowles embarks on a picaresque global odyssey in search of culinary extremes. The first to admit he has a timid tummy, Tom eschews the Michelin–starred restaurants hes grown accustomed to and seeks out the most authentic regional foods he can find. Full of trepidation, he puts his prejudices behind him and samples seahorse satay and millipede skewers in China, indulges in stomach–popping competitive eating in the States, and tentatively consumes the worlds most poisonous fish in Japan. Brilliantly written and often laugh–out–loud funny, this is an eye–opening adventure in the company of a man who may not be brave, but is certainly curious. Toms visceral account of his journey will make your mouth water – most of the time. About the AuthorTom Parker Bowles is a respected food critic, with high–profile columns in the Daily Mails Night and Day magazine and Tatler magazine. He is the author of one previous book, E is for Eating: An Alphabet of Greed.Paperback
