A La Carte: Food and Fiction is a collection of 25 short stories by Filipino and Philippine American writers that are related to food. Each story is preceded by a Filipino recipe. A La Carte is the winner of the prestigious Gourmand Award 2008 as the Best Food Literature Book from the Philippines.
Noted Philippine critic says: "Here is a book guaranteed to satisfy even the most discriminating taste, but also to make readers hungry for more stories, characters, insights, and recipes. Fact, fiction, fantasy, and food mix in a feast for the mind, the heart, the palate, and the soul. There are many well-known writers in the anthology, but it is not so much who writes as what is written that makes this book a must-read, just as it is not so much the chef or the cook that makes a recipe to die for, but the dish itself. Enjoy the 25-course banquet!"
