About the Book

Praise for Between Bites Memoirs of a Hungry Hedonist
"An incredible journey of gastronomy by one of America's greatest journalists. Wow!"--Chef Emeril Lagasse
"For anyone interested in disciplined hedonism, this gripping book reminds us where real style comes from and how it is sustained."--Jeremiah Tower
"This is a wonderful book for all to cherish and enjoy--those who love gloriously meticulous writing, wit, the joy of good food from French to Southern, the love of friends who truly accept them, and the pleasure of dispute, which I intend to keep doing with Jimmy as long as he will let me. Bravo!"--Barbara Kafka
"The more stubborn, persnickety, demanding, and shocking Jim Villas's opinions become in his memoirs, the funnier, more informed, and commonsensical they seem.

Liebling and Waverley Root, Jim Villas is not really a food writer but a great writer who revels in the joy of living well."--John Mariani

His career took off in 1972 when he was hired to be the food and wine editor at "Town & Country," For 27 years, Villas wrote on every topic imaginable, from American caviar and California wines to wild mushrooms and authentic barbecue. He was one of the first writers to champion the burgeoning American food movement in the 1970s, trying, as he puts it, "always to expose American cooking and food, elevating it as much as I could." Today, Villas continues to write cookbooks and essays that explore his subjects in the most authentic way possible. "Between Bites," his memoirs, is a collection of essays published last year. "I'
