We are seven handsome and charming* guys who meet at a different restaurant every month or so, having read a book in common, and discuss whatever we want--generally the assigned book, but usually many other timely topics as well. We rotate the responsibility to suggest titles, but the group has the final say. Our book club rules: 1) Anything goes, fiction or nonfiction; 2) paperbacks are preferred; and 3) staying under 300 pages is desirable (N.B., we violate this one all the time). We rate all books and restaurants on a 5-point scale.

* All other adjectives were vetoed.

One Man's Meat by E.B. White (Caffe Biaggio)

Our book was E. B. White's One Man's Meat, a collection of essays from the late 1930s and early 1940s on farming, world affairs, and many topics in between. We all found it enjoyable, but not earthshaking. Caffe Biaggio was a congenial venue on a snowy evening.
