Autor

Lieut.-Col. Nathaniel Newnham-Davis, often referred to simply as Newnham-Davis, was a noted British gourmand, food critic, and author, living in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His military title, 'Lieutenant-Colonel,' harkens back to his service with the British Army, a career that, while distinguished, eventually gave way to his gastronomic passions. His seminal work, 'The Gourmet's Guide to London,' published in 1914, serves as a compelling encapsulation of the Edwardian food scene in London during a time of culinary and social transition. The book provides invaluable insight into the luxury dining establishments of the era, reflecting Newnham-Davis's extensive expertise in the realm of fine dining and his robust appreciation for the culinary arts. His writings not only present in-depth reviews and descriptions of restaurants but also offer a vivid portrayal of Edwardian society's dining habits and preferences. Through his detailed and often witty accounts, Newnham-Davis carved a niche for himself in the burgeoning field of food writing, and his influence extends into contemporary food journalism. His literary style, often characterized by rich narrative and a relish for the subtleties of gourmet cuisine, captures the opulence and the gastronomic delights of early 20th-century London with an unmistakable flair and an eye for detail.
