Australian food writer Emiko Davies has spent more than two-thirds of her life living abroad in China, the US and most recently Tuscany, where she spent seven years learning to eat and drink like a Florentine, i.e. plenty of offal and proudly local. The food writer, photographer, adventurous eater, amateur urban gardner and blogger is now based in Melbourne with her Tuscan sommelier husband and their baby daughter. When not writing for various publications including Australia’s leading restaurant guides or for her weekly Food52 column, Emiko can be found working on her blog, where she indulges her thing for historical cookbooks, travel and regional Italian cuisine and traditions, emikodavies.com
