This book contains eighty-five recipes from Italy’s street food scene, which I researched in December 2015 on a whirlwind tour up and down the boot of Italy.

Alternatively, you can order the book via click Amazon or Rizzoli Books in the USA. The first edition and all printings have sold out, in both hard cover and paperback. A new second edition was released in August 2021 with a lovely graphic cover and many new location photos. My debut cookbook is published by Smith Street Books.


Once you place an order, you can either collect the book from me directly (I live in North Fitzroy) or it can be posted to you (only for Australian residents). I will sign the book for you so let me know if you would like me to write a special message.
