Ian Jackman leads you on a delicious tour of regional favorites around the U.S. I truly enjoyed his information on "impaled food" at state fairs. But I should have skipped the review of scrapple. Overall, a great travel guide for foodies, but it would be great if each state had its own food/travel guide to provide ample coverage for the ample waistline you'll get if you sample all the fare included. ( ) An exhaustive and exhausting armchair travelog about food across the U.S. Compare your favorite foods and locales with Jackman's list. It is a delightful trip except for the bit about scrapple. It would be great if each state would be given more space to sing its praises of food items, but it's a great introduction to regional and national food favorites. Author Jackman sets a huge task for himself. (And hey, what does a Brit know about southern food?) I have only read about a third of this book, but I find it extremely heavy on New York City, Colorado, and the west coast and very light on Texas, Louisiana and the deep south. That may be necessary, but when a book fails to mention the famous Oysters Rockefeller of Antoine's in New Orleans, one takes notice. There's a lot of local stuff not included. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
