MY PLACE AT THE TABLE A Recipe for a Delicious Life in Paris

Robert Fass narrates this satisfying audiobook with flair. His subtle delivery of French and English accents is pitch perfect. He captures both the introspective tone of the author's interior life and the cadence of his finely written reflections on Parisian cuisine. Lobrano's coming-of-age memoir of the life of an American food critic in the world's gastronomic capital begins with his discovery of his passion for food. The work also has stories of Paul Bocuse and less famous chefs, and the author also recounts aspects of his life as a gay man. He finds personal and professional success living in Paris and writing for GOURMET, SAVEUR, and FRANCE TODAY, among other publications. His idiosyncratic recommendations on current places to dine in Paris are inspired and fun. A.D.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2021]
