In quattro, cinque giorni mi spazzolavo la storia del Barolo o dell'Amarone, pretendendo anche di giudicarla.

For years, Nigel Slater has kept notebooks of curiosities and wonderings, penned while at his kitchen table, soaked in a fisherman’s hut in Reykjavik, sitting calmly in a moss garden in Japan or sheltering from a blizzard in a Vienna Konditorei.
