From the author's introduction: "...(W)riting about food is not a matter of dipping into the thesaurus to discover the many ways to say 'tasty.' Instead it means digging deep into human experience, because tasting, eating and savoring are very intimate ventures." Received the 1998 Gintong Aklat Award and considered one of the "bibles" by food and culture lovers and writers.
