Food writer and author

There are many much more glamorous books on the Caribbean, but this one is like one of my oldest friends - it's travelled extensively with me and it was so well respected by everyone who looked at it that I had to buy extra copies as so many people wanted a "borrow". It's scholarly, but there is an undercurrent of dry humour running through it, and it gives a very good grounding on the food from the whole of the Caribbean, unlike most books which tend to be Jamaica, Trinidad or Barbados-centric.

Ortiz’s book might not really be complete, but it comes close. In Haiti, I used it to enlarge my repertoire beyond that island.
