Books about food

Well since I have not cooked anything exceedingly special that's my own recipe today I cant post a recipe yet but I guess I can talk about fiction books about food. Right now I'm reading a really good book - Comfort Food by Kate Jacobs. It's a brilliant book. Has anyone else read it? Please comment. What about your favourite comfort food? I know many people will say chocolate but mine is a little bit more specific - chocolate ice cream. And it has to be the good kind, really rich and creamy, melt in your mouth but not too soft! Oooh! I feel like eating some right now! :)
