{"product_id":"9780241637975","title":"Between meals","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhile on a year of study in Paris in 1927, Liebling acquired the friendship and tutelage of Yves Mirande, 'one of the last great gastronomes of France', beginning a joyous apprenticeship in the fine art of eating. Told with gluttonous joie de vivre, Between Meals expounds on the delights and pitfalls of a life dedicated to food, from bad rosé ('a pinkish cross between No-Cal and vinegar') to lobster a l'Américaine ('I have never personally inquired into the mysteries of its fabrication; I am content to love a masterpiece of painting without asking how the artist mixed his colours'), to a memorable stay at a Swiss slimming clinic with a masseur named Sprudli. Witty, grouchy and full of gusto, 'Between Meals' has the exquisite sensuality of a Michelin-starred meal and the delicious, catty wit of the perfect dinner guest. It is a love song to food, wine, and Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Liebling, A. \/ J.","offer_id":46928193487162,"sku":"9780241637975","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/products\/9780241637975_6d8ae1b7-60b4-4b90-b95a-e036e52c5d46.jpg?v=1696500205","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.live\/products\/9780241637975","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
