In dinners shared is the preservation of the world


If I've come across another blog post that proved so mouthwatering and restorative of my faith in humanity I can't remember it. FXcuisine.com goes to Turkey and enjoys a splendid meal following nightfall on the first night of Ramadan. The photographs are haunting, delirious.

Like Adam Gopnik's line about how everyone the world over starts dinner by chopping an onion, this captures the unifying power of food. Read it and try not to get hungry. Try not to feel a little better about the world.
