Eat Something
Chronicle Books, 2020
“Hilarious” — Eater
“Probably the funniest Jewish cookbook ever written… witty yet insightful” — San Francisco Chronicle
“Something special…What I like so much about this book is its heart, both that it’s in the right place, and that it exists to begin with.” —Taste
“Imaginative” and “hilarious” – New York Times’ Wirecutter
Packed with homey recipes and relatable humor, EAT SOMETHING is as much a delicious, lighthearted, and nostalgic cookbook as it is a lively celebration of Jewish culture. Co-authored by Wise Sons Deli’s Evan Bloom, and designed and illustrated by George McCalman, with photography by Maren Caruso, EAT SOMETHING “has gone where no Jewish cookbook has gone before,” as one reviewer wrote. Stemming from the thesis that Jews eat by occasion (and with enthusiasm), the book is organized into 19 different events and celebrations chronicling a Jewish life in food, from bris to shivah, and all the makeshift and meaningful events in between.

“Eat Something, a collaboration between San Francisco’s Wise Sons founder Evan Bloom and writer Rachel Levin, is so much more than just a collection of 60 recipes...it’s a funny love letter to growing up Jewish in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, complete with scrapbook photos and thoughts on bubbe’s Sweet’N Low collection.” — New York Times' Wirecutter
