Liquor by Poppy Z. Brite

Liquor: A Novel Liquor: A Novel by Poppy Z. Brite


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Two New Orleans gay chefs live the dream and open up their own restaurant. There's also a vague crime/danger plot, but mostly this is just a book about food. This book made me want to eat things I don't even like.

I needed this today. It's fun and soaked in restaurant culture, with a generally interesting M/M long-term relationship around the edges. A light-weight escapist good time.
