Summary In our current bustle, lunch has been outsourced to stand-up counters, reduced to take-out platters, wrapped and rolled and packaged. But it doesn't need to be so. Peter Miller makes lunch every day at his bookshop in Seattle. It may be only a salad or a sandwich, but he and his team put it together each day without a formal kitchen. It is a moment set aside, away from the computer and the clock. Lunch at the Shop is a call to lunch. On the most basic level, the book is a primer for making lunch for a few people at work, including more than 45 tried-and-tested, deliciously simple recipes. However, the essence of the book is about adopting a lifestyle that allows food to be savored every day, in a way that is easy, fresh, healthy, and a pleasure.
Contents Introduction: the making of lunch -- Getting started: stocking your work pantry -- First intentions: meals made entirely at the shop -- The formidable ally of home: a bit from here, a bit from there -- Lunch in context: eating seasonally -- Times of invention: making lunch with the neighborhood -- A week or two: a plan for the lunches.
