In Search of the Lost Taste

Joshua Ploeg's cooking is transcendent: dangerous, strange and perfect. Itas full of colorful tastes that explode in your mouth like Pop Rocksaflavor combinations you never thought possible. Crazy alchemy. Freaky magic. Joshua's a Traveling Chef: you make an appointment and he shows up at your house with a load of groceries, makes an incredible multi-course vegan meal using your pots and pans, and then he's gone. He's been in a bunch of hardcore bands and he brings all the good things punk rock gave us: risk, passion, creativity, and weirdness; then he applies them to his meals. This sort of vegan cookbook doesnat come along every day, folks! Itas impressively decadent, but also totally approachable (and the ingredients you need for these elaborate dishes are things you might actually have around). Give it a whirl, you wonat be sorry.
