Fck, That's Delicious* by Action Bronson and Rachel Wharton is not just a cookbook or memoir; it is an exuberant homage to the transcendent power of food and the joy it brings to life. This vibrantly illustrated volume is an intoxicating blend of Action Bronson's passions: culinary arts, music, and travel.

In this modern-day saga, Action Bronson, with his signature irreverence and charisma, takes readers on an exploration of diverse culinary landscapes, showcasing over 40 tantalising recipes. Each recipe is a reflection of a life lived in pursuit of flavour, rooted in his childhood memories, family gatherings, and the myriad cultures encountered during his tours and travels. Readers will encounter comforting classics such as bagels with cream cheese, reminiscent of familial warmth, alongside the decadent indulgences of New York's unique food scene.

Fck, That's Delicious* offers an eclectic mix that spans far beyond traditional cookbooks. Discover the art of LA street tacos, the irresistible allure of Dominican chimis, and the fiery kick of Jamaican jerk. Delight in a perfectly crafted, hand-rolled pasta courtesy of culinary maestro Mario Batali, and savour secrets to gourmet dining revealed by the legendary Massimo Bottura.

The book is a celebration of the unique way food and culture intertwine, capturing the essence of street food delights and high-end gastronomy alike. It is infused with Action Bronson’s vibrant personality, punctuated by anecdotes of his travels and the camaraderie shared over mouth-watering meals. From Meyhem Lauren's hearty Chicken Patty Potpie to the simple elegance of a Big Mac, this compendium promises never-ending inspiration for those who love to eat. Immerse yourself in an adventure that is as much about camaraderie and discovery as it is about deliciousness.
