Publisher's Synopsis
Not quite a cook book, not quite a collection of short stories, but a subtle mixture of the two. Joe Clark chooses his seven favourite food and drink items, and for each provides an associated tale or anecdote or, in one case, advertising slogan. Varying in genre from satire to romantic humour to sporting heroism, the stories reflect the sweet and sour, basic and sophisticated, liquid and solid natures of the dishes they accompany. They are also a fair reflection of the author's love-hate relationship with cooking, shopping for food and eating out.
