About this title

Review:

Here is a work as satisfying as a square of Michel Cluziel's single-estate, high cacao Premier Cru d'Haceinda la Conception... (THE TIMES)

Guilt does not stalk these pages. Their aim is to instruct and, by instruction, to release the endorphins of pleasure that will make the next bar even better. (GUARDIAN)

This whimsical account of his pig-out pilgrimage is required reading for anyone who would rather not share their Kit-Kat (EVENING STANDARD)

Insightful and funny observations make for a tasty little book. (VIVID)

Book Description:

Part travelogue, part cultural history, part literary gastronomy, INDULGENCE is choc full of the hilarious, the delicious and the downright bizarre.
