An Omelette and a Glass of Wine

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Drawing on many years of writing articles on food for publications including The Sunday Times, The Spectator, Vogue and Cyril Ray's Compleat Imbiber, this book covers topics from David's recollections of rationing ('Even to write words like apricot, olives and butter, rice and lemons, oil and almonds, produced assuagement') to an article written in 1961 to celebrate the centenary of Mrs Beeton's Household Management. First published in 1984.
