Laura Goodman is a simply perfect food writer and everything she does is a dream

There are few food writers as witty and informed as Laura, and I (unsurprisingly to me) devoured this book. She also happens to have great taste, so I will be making most of these dips immediately.

It's so refreshing to read a cookbook that makes me laugh! Laura does the near impossible; her food and her good humour are as delicious in real life as on the page

-
An utterly joyful read. I cannot think of a nicer afternoon than to settle down with this book and a variety of snacks alongside.

Naked, unashamed and witty, Laura Goodman delights, tempts and insults our intestines with raucous, dangerous and surprising suggestions
