‘Sharing food is one of the purest human acts’

Critics Review
A hugely entertaining glimpse into a well-lived life full of fun, food, family, travel, work, passions and love. I adored every page of this voyeuristic treat of a book. * Dolly Alderton *
Everyone wants to spend a day and share a meal with Stanley Tucci and this is the perfect way to do it! Seeing the world through the eyes of beloved actor and culinary adventurer is a true joy. Every food lover will devour this book! * Ina Garten *
What I Ate In One Year is an absolute delight. Tucci’s wit is dry as a martini; his observations as sharp as lemon tart, but really what I most adore about his writing is his ability to reach across the table and guide the reader not just through mealtimes, but through life itself. This book is beautiful and very moving and, as with all the best repasts, once I’d finished I immediately wanted to experience the whole thing again. * Elizabeth Day *
This is a man who knows both how to eat and how to live * Guardian, praise for Taste *
Food memoirs are tough to pull off, but Tucci’s has the essentials: honesty, humour, humility and real acquired knowledge … I want the sequel * Spectator, praise for Taste *
Superb … Establishes Tucci as one of the wisest and most generous personalities of our time * Daily Mail, praise for Taste *
The man, the myth, The Devil Wears Prada legend Stanley Tucci has blessed our hungry souls with a food memoir to feed our mounting appetite for the actor and cook’s wit, warmth and, let’s face it: tight polo shirts … Prepare to feel bereaved when it’s over * Evening Standard, praise for Taste *
