‘Cosmopolitan’, says the cover blurb about this selection from Grigson’s Evening Standard recipes. Nowadays we cook from all over the world, but when this came out in 1990, I had just moved to London (as it happens, down the road from where SG had lived) and was exploring the produce from London’s diverse shops. I’ve often found the Standard recipes useful and relevant - Fay Maschler’s Eating In could also have been in this personal selection of my most used cookbooks.
