Having read Trillin's tribute to his wife, Alice, I thought this book might be as funny and perhaps as tender. It was somewhat enjoyable, and Alice plays a major part in the stories, but I was amazed, nay, appalled at the amounts of food this man would eat in a day. I felt as though my arteries were clogging as I read his daily intake; so much so that it distracted from the pleasure of reading as I was so concerned about his health! Overall an enjoyable book, and if I EVER want to throw caution to the wind, I have some new restaurants to try when traveling.
