Peach Street to Lobster Lane: Coast to Coast in Search of Real American Food by Felicity Cloake

    

When award-winning food writer Felicity Cloake announced her dream to cycle across America, the reactions were… mixed: “You’ll die,” warned a Californian colleague. “You’ll be murdered,” added her mum. Friends panicked: “But… what will you eat?”

Determined to prove there’s more to American cuisine than burgers and doughnuts, Felicity embarks on the ultimate coast-to-coast adventure, tackling America’s highways, byways and pieways by bike in election year, counting campaign flags and uncovering local favourites like crawfish stew and sauerkraut balls. from Memphis barbecue to Mission burritos, Italian beef to Tex-Mex-Chinese breakfast dumplings, she dives headfirst into iconic American dishes and the fascinating stories and journeys behind them.

Felicity Cloake is the multi award-winning author of the Guardian’s long-running How to Make the Perfect series, the New Statesman’s food column and seven books, including One More Croissant for the Road and Red Sauce Brown Sauce, which won the Fortnum and Mason food book of the year award in 2023.
