When you’re burning the midnight oil and your stomach starts to grumble, what should you reach for to fuel you through the night? We decided to go directly to the source. We mean writers, of course. After all, who knows better the pain and pleasure of the midnight munchies than the literary set?
This month, we asked 20 authors, past and present, to share what they snack on in the wee hours.
Riding in on a wave of critical acclaim, first-time author Stephanie Danler’s story of a young woman’s coming of age in the rarified world of New York City fine dining has been called “The Kitchen Confidential of our time” by Gabrielle Hamilton, whose own Blood, Bones & Butter set the standard for culinary memoirs. Sweetbitter recounts an impressionable young server’s sensual education as she is introduced to the pleasures of oysters, great wine, truffles, and more.
Like her protagonist, Tess, Danler is no stranger to nocturnal noshing; a veteran of the New York restaurant world, her downtime began when the last customer departed, leading to plenty of late nights.
