We read this quite a while ago, when we were only beginning to be wine snobs. The coverage of coffee is brief, but the principles of the book have stayed with us and allowed us to make pairings that are not specifically included. For example, if one of the expert bakers in my church prepares a dessert, I can bring a coffee that makes it EVEN better.

I didn't know anything about wine before receiving this book as a gift but now I feel decently informed enough to comfortably pair wine with food. It is organized as a reference book, food-to-wine in front and vice versa in back. For example, look up PECANS and it will tell you that (esp in dessert) Champagne is good, Muscat is great, but Port, esp Tawny, is a fantasic pairing. It is also peppered with expert advice from soms and MS, all of which give some more depth to the choices in the pairings.

A fun and interesting reference book for pairing drink with food. For instance, you've probably heard of pairing red wine with steak, but this book breaks it down to what kind of red wine goes with specific cuts and preparations of steak. And it's not just for wine. You may already like your foie gras with sauternes, but how about foie gras with root beer?! I thought so.

What to Drink with What You Eat is a great reference guide for pairing food & wine, or food with pretty much any other kind of beverage. I love the quotes and suggestions from the experts that are sprinkled throughout the book. I also love that you can look up pairings either by the drink or by what you're eating. I love it in general!

If you didn't know anything about how to dring with what you eat you will after this book. It is well written and easy to understand. There is a short but interesting section on different types of waters.
