I’m on the road with Austin from RealThai, visiting all the food hotspots in Cambodia that begin with the letter “S”: Siem Reap, Snoul, Skuon and Sre Ambel. As such, things are going to be a little slow at Phnomenon for a few days. I suggest catching up on some great food bloggers from the 1800s:
- The Art of Dining; or Gastronomy and Gastronomers by Abraham Heyward (1852) – The Derby Reporter says “No Housekeeper ought to be without this book, which is adapted to every class of society, the rich, the middle classes and the poor”.
- The Physiology of Taste by Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1842) – Anyone famous enough to have a cheese named after them as well as having the temerity to say “a dessert without cheese is like a beautiful woman who has lost an eye.” is worth a read.
