BITE ME provides the answer to the most commonly asked question, “What’s for dinner?” You won’t need an army of souschefs, a pantry of guava paste or a blowtorch to turn a bag of groceries into a satisfying meal. BITE ME is 175 dependably delicious, rigorously tested recipes created for the urban and suburban, the aspiring and well-seasoned home cook.BITE ME speaks to more than just your stomach. The creation of food is intimately tied to the world outside the kitchen—family, art, music, movies and pop culture are constant sources of laughter and inspiration. BITE ME is a multi-sensory smorgasbord, a feast for your eyes (including images from legendary photographers David Lachapelle, Miles Aldridge and Melvin Sokolsky), ears (suggested tunes to cook to), nose and mouth.

BITE ME is the result of the collaboration between sisters, JULIE ALBERT and LISA GNAT. Sharing a deep love of food, family, and fun, Julie and Lisa have created a ucookbook that not only marries food and culture, but also makes eating, feeding, and entertaining a piece of cake.
