1,000 foods Mimi Sheraton thinks you need to eat before you die

The film The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover, starring the young Helen Mirren, is one of the entries in Mimi Sheraton's book, 1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die.

Mimi Sheraton’s latest book, 1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die (Workman), is more than just a culinary bucket list. Consider it also a valuable reference work, a tour book, a restaurant guide, a recipe source and – as Sheraton hopes – a book to pick up and enjoy.

Mimi Sheraton talked publisher Workman into a deal they couldn't refuse.
