I love Tin House and was very excited to receive this collection of essays for my birthday. "Food and Booze" takes the best food and drink pieces from Tin House magazine and compiles them into this collection. The collection is solid, with nearly every chapter more entertaining and interesting than the last. It also includes recipes,many with exotic ingredients, but still fun. The only problem with reading these stories is that I craved something different with every chapter!

This is a lovely collection of gem-like essays taken from the pages of Tin House magazine. They cover topics from cocktails to eating elk, and each one has that marvelous combination of the sensual and essential human truth that marks the very best in food writing. The recipes are great as well.
