You're about to die. What would your final meal be?
This question has long troubled Jay Rayner. As a man more obsessed with his lunch than is strictly necessary, the idea of a showpiece last supper is a tantalising prospect. But wouldn't knowledge of your imminent demise ruin your appetite?
So, Jay decided to cheat death.
The plan was simple: he would embark on a journey through his life in food in pursuit of the meal to end all meals. It's a quest that takes him from necking oysters on the Louisiana shoreline to forking away the finest French pastries in Tokyo, and from his earliest memories of snails in garlic butter, through multiple pig-based banquets, to the unforgettable final meal itself.
My Last Supper is both a hugely entertaining account of a life built around mealtimes and a fascinating global exploration of our relationship with what we eat. It is the story of one hungry man, in eight courses.

Experience tells that most authors should be kept well away from giving readings of their own books. Not so with Jay Rayner, and especially with this book. It is not just a book that makes you smile but laugh out loud (I hope not to the discomfort of my fellow commuters in the morning and evening train but I did get a few sideways looks). Jay is a mensch and it really shines though on a subject that could otherwise be tediously self referential. It's a novel take on a memoir and his recipes are decent too. I can really recommend it, though advise readers/listeners to have something to eat nearby...

An entertaining book well read!
