A culinary classic on the joys of the table written by the gourmand who so famously stated, "Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are". The Physiology of Taste is a historical, philosophical, and ultimately Epicurean collection of recipes, reflections and anecdotes on everything and anything gastronomical. Brillat Savarin who spent his days eating through the famed food capital of Dijon, lent a shrewd, exuberant and comically witty voice to culinary matters that still resonate today.
