![]() ![]() Is it good bedtime reading? This is definitely one to keep on the bedside table, to send you off dreaming of carbonara in Rome, pizza in Naples and spaghetti alla marinara in Sardinia. Clocking in at 352 pages, it’s also a weighty tome, packed with 200 colour photographs portraying the chefs, farmers, fishermen and other figures behind Italy’s culinary traditions, as well as the food, landscapes and cityscapes of Rome, Puglia, Bologna, Sicily, Naples, Sardinia, Piedmont and Lake Como. What does it look like? At 16.5cm by 19.8 cm, Pasta, Pane, Vino is a cute, squat volume. ![]() Goulding’s correspondence with the late Anthony Bourdain about Italy and Goulding’s plans for the book form the foreword. Goulding is also the author of Grape, Olive, Pig: Deep Travels Through Spain’s Food Culture and Rice, Noodle, Fish: Deep Travels Through Japan’s Food Culture. Who’s the author? Matt Goulding is co-founder of Roads and Kingdoms a travel, food and politics website. What’s the USP? Not a cookbook but rather a culinary travelogue through the regional cuisines of Italy. ![]()
