6. AOTW: What non-cookbook (ie: a novel like Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe), book has the best food in it?

Smita Chandra: I think all of Lawrence Sanders' books have great descriptions of food in them.

Stan Frankenthaler:  I always have been delighted by the food described by Thomas Wolfe in Look Homeward Angel.

Victoria Granof: Woman on Top and, of course, Like Water for Chocolate.

Kathy Gunst: I'll always remember the description of eating eggs in Frank McCourt's book, Angela's Ashes.

Elinor Klivans: I like the recipes in the mystery series by Diane Mott Davidson. I haven't tried them yet, but they sound wonderful.

Sheila Lukins: I love Alan Furst's The World at Night.

Steven Raichlen: Dodin Bouffant by Marcel Rouff. Also, Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier.

Joanne Weir: I loved the descriptions of food in many of MFK Fisher's Two Towns in Provence. Such a wonderful part of the world with food to match!
