Julie Biuso discusses her book "Dancing On My Table"

Runtime: 6m 47s | Views: 109 | Comments: 0

In this lively account of people, food and places, award-winning food writer Julie Biuso traces the development of the passions that have shaped her life. Only in part a memoir Dancing On My Table shares with the reader the flavour of precious memories and vividly recreates the warmth of Julie's typically Kiwi family, and her marriage to an Italian and subsequent adoption by his extended Italian family. Although there are some recipes in this collection of stories, they are not the star event. The book comprises of 16 chapters, each with its own theme, for example; memorable meetings with luminaries like Claudia Rodin (who ended up coming home with Julie, donning an apron and cooking up a storm in the Biuso kitchen); Luciano Pavarotti (for whom Julie cooked a special lunch during his one and only visit to New Zealand); and interesting and educative encounters - particularly in other countries - with little-known ingredients. A story full of energy and joy, punctuated with flashes of sadness at the loss of deeply loved mentors, Dancing On My Table is a refreshingly honest read for everyone who has come to appreciate the endless fascinations of the table. www.juliebiuso.com
