Whether at his own 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, Nigel Slater has kept note of the small things, events and happenings that gave pleasure before disappearing forever. Here he celebrates details like enjoying a soup for breakfast, packing a suitcase for a trip and watching a butterfly settle on a carpet and hiding in plain sight – as well as feasts such as a mango eaten in monsoon rain and a dish of restorative macaroni cheese.
