Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Immerse yourself in a fascinating culinary journey through American dining from the mid-1970s through today. In a remarkable career that has spanned nearly 50 years, Wini Moranville has witnessed the American restaurant landscape transform from the inside out. At just shy of 14, she began a 10-year stretch working in a kaleidoscope of quintessential Midwestern eateries of the time. From the familiarity and warmth of a family-owned cafeteria, to the groovy vibe of a hippie-run vegetarian restaurant, from the graciousness of a department store tearoom, to the camaraderie of a downtown coffeeshop, and later, the dispiriting milieu of an exclusive private dining club, Moranville's hands-on experiences weave a vivid tapestry of the American restaurant landscape in the 1970s and 80s. In the mid-90s, the tables turned as Moranville became a prolific food and wine writer for national publications, as well as the dining critic for the Des Moines Register and later, dsm Magazine. During the past 25 years, she has written over 750 professional restaurant reviews. Here, she tells of the great evolution of the American dining scene that happened on her watch, as food become more ambitious, energetic, locally sourced, and globally purveyed. She also recounts, with humor and heart, the pleasures and pitfalls of being a well-known and highly trusted food critic, when, for instance, a readers will corner you at the supermarket if they disagree with what you've written. Amidst the vast changes that have occurred over the years, the book underscores the timelessness of what it is we seek when we entrust restaurateurs with our hard-earned money and our hard-won leisure time. Dining out may have changed dramatically since the 70s, but the joys of being in the hands of people who care deeply about our time at their tables have not"--

Cuisine is undergoing a startling historic transformation: With the advent of the global availability of ingredients, dishes are no longer based on geography but on flavor.

The Flavor Bible is your guide to hundreds of ingredients along with the herbs, spices, and other seasonings that will allow you to coax the greatest possible flavor and pleasure from them. This astonishing reference distills the combined experience of dozens of America's most innovative culinarians, representing such celebrated and transformative restaurants as A Voce, Blue Hill, Café Atlántico, Chanterelle, Citronelle, Gramercy Tavern, the Herbfarm, Jardinière, Jean Georges, Le Bernardin, the Modern, and the Trellis. You'll learn to: explore the roles played by the four basic tastes -- salty, sour, bitter, and sweet -- and how to bring them into harmony; work more intuitively and effectively with ingredients by discovering which flavors have the strongest affinities for one another; brighten flavors through the use of acids -- from vinegars to citrus juices to herbs and spices such as Makrut lime and sumac; deepen or intensify flavors through layering specific ingredients and techniques; and balance the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of cooking and serving an extraordinary meal. Seasoned with tips, anecdotes, and signature dishes from the country's most respected chefs and pastry chefs, The Flavor Bible is an essential book for every kitchen library.

But she’s delightful and gorgeous, and she asks me to dance. Later, we head to her hotel room and… Okay, I admit it doesn’t go well. She might be all about one-night stands, but I’m not used to having them. That should be the end of it. I can forget about her or, more likely, obsess about it whenever I can’t sleep. But then I see her at a second wedding. Apparently, she’s a family friend of my cousins. All three of them are getting married this summer, so she’ll be at the next two weddings as well, along with her parents. Kim is even more beautiful than last time, and I really want the chance to prove I’m not a complete disaster in bed. I also want to take her on an actual date, but she has no interest in dating anyone. More than anything, though, I need to avoid her because I’m too embarrassed to hold a conversation, and my brothers have found out about my unfortunate one-night stand. Oh, no. She’s coming this way.
