Postcards from Lost Kitchens

By Séamus Gregan

You can't eat this food, neither can I. But we can look at pictures, and reminisce together. I think about food more than most, and enjoy philosophising about it, if you like that too, let me prod your mind with delicious dishes and awkward questions.

séamus is a brilliant cook, and somehow an even better storyteller. 💜
