'a thoroughly absorbing book, packed with fascinating stories.'
Bee Wilson, New Statesman
'richly researched read...More that just the story of a dish, this engaging book provides a sidelong history of India'
John Koski, Mail on Sunday
'This is a sensuous subject, and Collingham gives it a sensuous treatment, taking an exquisite but never gluttonous delight in describing Mughal banquets, and a sympathetic approach to the disappointments bad food brings to people who are a long way from home.'
Bill Saunders, Independent on Sunday
delectable...packed with fascinating facts, analysis and even some recipes, this book is a mouth-watering introduction not only to Indian food, but the the history of the sub-continent and its hugely influential place in the world
Scotsman
'marvellous and well-illustrated...based on exhaustive research and full of intriguing nuggets of information'.
Chandak Sengoopta, Independent
