About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

From award-winning actor and food obsessive Stanley Tucci comes an intimate and charming memoir of life in and out of the kitchen.

Before Stanley Tucci became a household name with The Devil Wears Prada, The Hunger Games and the perfect Negroni, he grew up in an Italian American family that spent every night around the table. He shared the magic of those meals with us in The Tucci Cookbook and The Tucci Table, and now he takes us beyond the recipes and into the stories behind them.

Taste is a reflection on the intersection of food and life, filled with anecdotes about growing up in Westchester, New York, preparing for and filming the foodie films Big Night and Julie & Julia, falling in love over dinner and teaming up with his wife to create conversation-starting meals for their children. Each morsel of this gastronomic journey through good times and bad, five-star meals and burnt dishes, is as heartfelt and delicious as the last.

Written with Stanley's signature wry humour and nostalgia, Taste is a heartwarming story that will be irresistible for anyone who knows the power of a home-cooked meal.

Thank you Mr. Tucci, they say everyone has at least one book in them, please write a few more. I haven’t enjoyed a book so much, in a long time. Fellow foodie here, I know most, but not all of the recipes in the book. But I will be buying the hard copy for the ones I don’t.

Thankyou

My first audio book and I have to say I also bought the book because I wanted to share with my family and friends. It is certainly a great audio book and Stanley reads it wonderfully, capturing the mood and situations to a tee. It made me tearful at times, knowing what I am missing by not being able to travel but gave me a warm feeling that others have food rules too! A must read/listen.

Amazing... I was in Italy with Stanley

I could listen to Stanley Tucci talk about food all day! A well written journey through one mans life told through his passion for food that will not only get your juices flowing - i could almost taste the dishes - but which will make you laugh, think and reflect along the way.

A feast for the ears.
