Media Reviews
In this exuberant parade of pork fat, there is no doubting the flap copy when it states that Villas, former food Editor for Town & Country, has been 'beguiled by bacon since he was a boy'. (Publishers Weekly, September 3, 2007) there is nothing standard about Villas book...shows the versatility of bacon...Vegetarians beware; these dishes could prove too tempting. (Independent, September 13, 2008)
