Felicity Cloake is the multi award-winning author of the Guardian’s long-running How to Make the Perfect series, the New Statesman’s food column and six books, the most recent of which, One More Croissant for the Road, was shortlisted for the Fortnum and Mason food book of the year award, as well as being a Radio 4 Book of the Week. Red Sauce, Brown Sauce is her hotly awaited follow up.
‘As a greedy woman who loves cycling around the country in search of double and even triple breakfasts, I was delighted by this book about a greedy woman, cycling around the countryside, looking for several square meals a day. In an era when too many fully grown adults munch through instant microwave oats, overpackaged biscuits or simply skip eating altogether, Cloake is making the case for a cooked, regional, calorie-packed kick off, both as a treat for your senses and as a way of supporting smaller, traditional food producers…funny, enlightening and evocative.’ Nell Frizzell, The Guardian ‘A bible for breakfast lovers.’ The Scotsman Praise for ‘One More Croissant for the Road’ ‘Joyful, life-affirming, greedy. I loved it.’ Diana Henry ‘Wonderfully written.’ Anna Jones ‘Felicity Cloake’s Tour de France is a triumph. It is full of greed and wit, jam packed with priceless practical information, and peppered with a sense of adventure and wonder. I love it.’ Yotam Ottolenghi ‘From start to finish, this book is a joy: the perfect antidote to a world of diets and bad news.’ Bee Wilson
