Praise for What Katie Ate

“When I first saw Katie Quinn Davies’s work, I nearly fell off my chair because I had never seen photos so staggeringly gorgeous, delightfully gritty, and full of things you want to immediately cook. She’s a constant source of inspiration. This book belongs in your kitchen with you.” 
—Deb Perelman, author of The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook

“Beautifully designed and photographed.”—Michael Ruhlman

“The foodie/photographer pairing in the blog world is a common one, but no one does it better than Katie Quinn Davies.”—Goop

“Naturally lit images of food that seem tactile, real, and honest.”—Martha Stewart Living

“It’s simply to die for.”—Babble.com

“Mini beef-and-bacon Aussie meat pies, with a shortbread crust, rescue a maligned working-class foodstuff from the larder of cliché; easy chocolate cake is indeed easy (even for a non-baker like me), and moist, and very tasty.”—Coleman Andrew ~ The Wall Street Journal

"Katie's recipes ooze comfort and style. Just like in her popular blog, I lose myself in travel stories, her vintage sensibility, and beautifully styled food -- always coming back for more. And I believe you will too. Gorgeous all around." —Aran Goyoaga, author of Small Plates and Sweet Treats. My Family's Journey to Gluten-Free Cooking
