Eat, Drink & Be Wary explores the joys, quirks and questionable behavior that food and drink inspire. From Houston’s burgeoning culinary landscape to late-night revelry in Britain and Barcelona to a Hell’s Kitchen TV studio, it captures a way of life we take for granted no longer, when people freely gathered at tables and counters, shared food, raised glasses, and partook of drama and laughter and magic.
It’s also very funny.
Kathy reviewed restaurants in Houston and NYC and covered the specialty food industry, for more than 30 years. Her food writing has won awards from the Association of Food Journalists and the Houston Press Club. She is also an attorney, an actress best known for the dowager role in the first revival of the Marx Brothers’ musical I’ll Say She Is, and an astrologer.
Kathy will read excerpts from and sign her book at Black Dog Books, 103 Route 15 South (downstairs below The Chocolate Goat), Lafayette, NJ, 7 PM Thursday, July 1! Wine! Cheese! Wit! In person!
