I am not keep of biographies of &#8220;famous&#8221; people. It rang the bell that he was an actor so I was surprised to find a book about food. Checking the cover there was a sentence that bought me &#8220;he grew up in an Italian American family that spent every night around the table&#8221;. That&#8217;s what I like, build a culture around food, preparing and enjoying it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book is not a recipe book, it is a history around food. It has some funny moments and more important thing, some recipes to try. And will do my best to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well, there is an important reference to &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0115678\/\">Big Night<\/a>&#8221; and actually watched it this weekend. Nothing really special but I got his point about the food and the enjoyment about it. And that reminded me to the movie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2883512\/\">Chef<\/a>, I liked it more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is another important reference to &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Julia_Child\">Julia Child<\/a>&#8221; who was a famous TV cook\/chef\/presenter. Some weeks ago having lunch with friends somebody mentioned her and a movie about her life: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1135503\/\">Julia and Julie<\/a>&#8221; while talking about cooking and nice food. And I am trying to convince myself to watch it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good point is the critic to people on TV tasting food and always saying that is amazing when they haven&#8217;t had the time to swallow! I always thought it was a bit fake, so I am glad I am not the only one thinking that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am surprised by the outcome of his recovery of tongue cancer. His metabolism and allergies were &#8220;reset&#8221;. So no more lactose issues and improved digestive system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, it was entertaining and I hope I can take some recipes for my own repository.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to buy and read this book one day while checking out some stands in a library.
