Reichl writes so well about food, you can almost taste it. And when she sticks to her food stories, it's fascinating. The story of the disintegration of her marriage was sad and well written, but less interesting for me.
I loved her stories about MFK Fisher and Danny Kaye though.
I'm now reading Garlic and Sapphires, and loving it. Mostly because I'm really into the whole evolution of restaurant criticism. I first got into reading them as an art form about 8 years ago and there really is a difference between a good critic and a bad one. And she's definitely one of the best.
