Feeding a Yen - Calvin Trillin

If you enjoy reading about food, especially stories about the quest for unusual culinary specialties, you won't be able to put down Feeding a Yen by Calvin Trillin. Don't miss the chapter about ceviche and his very memorable trip to the ceviche meccas of Peru and Ecuador.

There are other interesting quests in the book - such as the hunt for fish tacos in California, and for pimientos de Padrón in Spain.

Calvin Trillin happens to be in the news right now because of his (humorous) New York Times op-ed piece about why an influx of smart people working on wall street caused the stock market crash.
