When it come to "dishing" the information about the famous and the notorious there is no one any better to listen in on. Liz takes us along on some of her luncheons with famous people she has interviewed in the past.

Liz Smith has been a nationally syndicated gossip columnist and a top author of best sellers before this charming book. Here you are let into a life of "nosh" and "dish" with the stars. The recipes in the book are fun to read about especially when they come from great stars. Over their lunch Katherine Hepburn told Liz to never put too much flour in your Brownie recipe. Well, that might be good advice but add to this that Kate's interviews with Liz made for great reading.

The author let's us sit with her during many a luncheon with the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Mike Nichols, Better Midler and Barbara Walters.

What you get here is the inside word about these folks when they are relaxed and talking with a friend like Liz. You also get some recipes that you might want to try. It's a tasty "dish" indeed.
