Arthur Schwartz's New York City Food: An Opinionated History and More Than 100 Legendary Recipes

By Arthur Schwartz, Chris Callis
Stewart, Tabori & Chang - 2008

November 2nd, 2009

The beauty of this book lies in the history aspects rather than the recipes. It covers New York food by ethnic group, time period, and some specific restaurants. It had the unfortunate effect of making me want to go to many more restaurants than I can afford.
