The Taste of Things
In 1885, peerless cook Eugenie has worked for the famous gourmet Dodin for the last 20 years. As time went by, the practice of gastronomy and mutual admiration turned into a romantic relationship.
Their association gives rise to dishes, one more delicious than the next, that confound even the world’s most illustrious chefs. But Eugenie is fond of her freedom and has never wanted to marry Dodin. So, he decides to do something he has never done before: cook for her.
“The couple’s pursuit of true, deep, sincere beauty in all things — in body and mind — despite these obstacles is infinitely touching.” ~Elena Lazic, The Playlist
“Food is the subject, the objective and the driving motor of this scantly plotted but utterly captivating love story.” ~Guy Lodge, Variety
“Gastroporn doesn’t come more XXX-rated than this insanely pretty, airily vacant livre de recettes.” ~Tara Brady, The Irish Times
