by Maria Elia published by Kyle Books
"There is a voracious public appetite for and interest in drink and cookery books and this year attracted some particularly outstanding submissions. It was very hard to draw up a shortlist. There's such quality and diversity food and drink books today but we feel this selection, whittled down from over 120 entries, recognises some of the most passionate, energetic and engaging writing."
