Grind: A Modern Guide to City Living

Recipes, tips and stories for modern urban life, from cool London coffee company GRIND

From the cult London coffee brand comes a modern guide to food, drink, work, rest and play.

This tongue-in-cheek book doesn’t take itself too seriously. With guides and anecdotes, tips and lists, Grind reveals everything from how to make a great burger at home, to how to politely bail on a bad date, find flatmates that don’t suck and buy and drink wine like a grown-up.

This book is really a guide to city living, divided into chapters – Morning, Day, Evening and Night. Interwoven, you'll find recipes for everything from your first Flat White of the day, One-Pan Eggs for brunch, Sticky Coffee Pudding for dessert, right through to the last cocktail before you call it a night. Not to mention, it includes Grind's infamous Espresso Martini recipe – regularly name-checked as the very best in London.

Each of the recipes includes a great story or anecdote from a decade of living, eating and drinking with Grind in London.
