About this listen

A cookbook and culinary memoir about growing up as the daughter of revered chef/restaurateur Alice Waters: a story of food, family, and the need for beauty in all aspects of life.

In this extraordinarily intimate portrait of her mother - and herself - Fanny Singer, daughter of food icon and activist Alice Waters, chronicles a unique world of food, wine, and travel; a world filled with colorful characters, mouth-watering traditions, and sumptuous feasts. Across dozens of vignettes with accompanying recipes, she shares the story of her own culinary coming of age and reveals a side of her legendary mother that has never been seen before. A charming, smart translation of Alice Waters' ideals and attitudes about food for a new generation, Always Home is a loving, often funny, unsentimental, and exquisitely written look at a life defined in so many ways by food, as well as the bond between mother and daughter.

Great insight into the world of Alice Waters

I thought the author did a great job narrating this audiobook. A soothing but not monotone voice, and it added a great authenticity to the words.

These stories certainly come from a person and world of privilege and I admit to rolling my eyes a few times, but the sincerity of the book makes me appreciate the work as a whole.

It's too bad there is no pdf with the actual recipes as I will likely return the audiobook in favour of the printed book as a result, but it was an enjoyable listen.
