“Goulding is pioneering a new type of writing about food.” - Financial Times
“Think of this as a travel guide that’s supremely unhelpful in telling you where to eat… in the best possible way. After reading this book, you will want the following: a giant pan of paella, a big bowl of fabada, and as many cured meats as your stomach can take.” - Bon Appétit on Grape, Olive, Pig
“Goulding adeptly exposes the fabric of modern Spanish cuisine and whets the appetites for both food and travel, daring readers to explore unadvertised adventures of Spain. This book should be savored.” - Los Angeles Review of Books on Grape, Olive, Pig
“Goulding’s book leaves the reader with a pretty good idea of why Spain deserves to be taken very seriously as a gastronomic paradise.” - Wall Street Journal on Grape, Olive, Pig
“A good travel book makes you want to change your plans; a great one makes you want to change your life. Rice, Noodle, Fish falls into the latter category through its deft and delectable combination of gorgeous photography, compelling writing and cunning usability. Matt Goulding knows Japan and the importance of the “shokunin” to Japanese cooking, the artisan’s “quiet pursuit of perfection” in all things edible. This story is about more than just food; it’s about devotion.” - Society of American Travel Writers, 2016 travel book of the year, on Rice, Noodle, Fish
“Rice, Noodle, Fish isn’t just a travel document . . . it’s a literary exploration of just what makes Japan the place that food lovers lay awake at night and dream of.” - Men’s Journal on Rice, Noodle, Fish
Partially backed by Anthony Bourdain, this is a totally new approach to food writing: full immersion in the country and its cuisine at the highest and lowest levels. Superb photography, intensely geeky text and not a recipe or a celebrity chef’s ‘twist on a classic’ to be seen. If this is the future, I love it.” - Tim Hayward, Financial Times, on Rice, Noodle, Fish
“Italy is a beautiful but complicated place, not so much a country as a collection of cultures and cuisines. Matt Goulding expertly navigates its wonders and eccentricities with wisdom and great passion.” - Anthony Bourdain
“For travelers and Italophiles, this is a wonderful culinary guide.” - Publisher's Weekly

This is not a cookbook. This is something more: a travelogue, a patient investigation of Italy's cuisine, a loving profile of the everyday heroes who bring Italy to the table. Pasta, Pane, Vino is the latest edition of the genre-bending Roads & Kingdoms style pioneered under Anthony Bourdain's imprint in Rice, Noodle, Fish (2016 Travel Book of the Year, Society of American Travel Writers ) and Grape, Olive, Pig (2017 IACP Award, Literary Food Writing).
Town by town, bite by bite, author Matt Goulding brings Italy to life through intimate portraits of its food culture and the people pushing it in new directions: Three globe-trotting brothers who became the mozzarella kings of Puglia; the pizza police of Naples and the innovative pies that stay one step ahead of the rules; the Barolo Boys who turned the hilly Piedmont into one of the world's great wine regions.
Goulding's writing has never been better, introducing the chefs, shepherds, fisherman, farmers, grandmas, and guardians who power this country's extraordinary culinary traditions. From the pasta temples of Rome to the multicultural markets of Sicily to the family-run, fish-driven trattorias of Lake Como, Pasta, Pane, Vino captures the breathtaking diversity of Italian regional food culture.
