This is a handbook for anybody who enjoys simple, honest food but can do without the foam, fuss and trickery it's often served with.

There are also recipes from Monocle's favourite restaurants, plus a selection of timetested dishes developed by the team in Monocle's London kitchen.

Food for thought takes the form of zesty essays and dinner-time discussions with admired names from the worlds of architecture, hospitality, art and more.
