Written in Nigel Slaters trademark style, Eating for England is described as an entertaining, detailed and somewhat tongue-in-cheek observation of the British and their food, their cooking, their eating, how they behave in restaurants and their idiosyncratic attitude towards the fine art of dining. It is a celebration of the glory, humour, eccentricities and embarrassments that are The British at Table.
