reviewed Gastropolis: Food and New York City on September 04, 2018 Gastropolis: Food and New York City
This book is a collection of essays from a variety of writers including historians, collectors, and social scientists. Each essay is focused on food traditions, histories, and voices in New York City but each approaches the topic in a different way. I enjoyed the chapter on Native American foodways which delved into the study of environmental history to help tell the food traditions of the pre-contact Lanape. I also found the chapter on Chinese-American restaurants interesting as it was written by a collector who analyzed his collection of menus which covered over 100 years of restaurants. The book is a collection of stories of how we understand our history, culture, and selves through food. (Disclosure: I read this book for an MA course titled "Immigrant Foodways of NYC".)
