By Listener Request... The Food and Drink of James Bond, 007

Don't be shy, send me a message!

Thanks to Frank on Instagram (@HansGruberr) for suggesting this topic. In fact, ‘007’s Drinks’ was the request, but since I have covered some of these on my Youtube channel already (www.youtube.com/britishculture), I thought I’d broaden it out to include food from the original James Bond novels by as well.

The key reference books I use in this episode are:

• "For Your Eyes Only: Ian Fleming + James Bond" by Ben Macintyre 
• "License to Cook" by Edward Biddulph
• "The Complete Guide to the Drinks of James Bond" by David Leigh

…and of course, I quote three Ian Fleming novels with the most vivid and memorable (to me) food descriptions, "Casino Royale" (1953), "From Russia With Love" (1957) and "Goldfinger" (1959). 

I also mention (and recommend) the podcast and Youtube channels 'From Tailors with Love'  and 'Quantum of History'.
