Books that are not about food but which contain rich descriptions of food, especially regional foods, in the course of their stories

Just for fun. Lately I'm on a toast and tea kick from Shuggie Bain, and Shogun has me craving Japanese barley and simple fish broth with sea vegetables. Pachinko nearly did me in with desire for kim chi and gochujang. In Angela's Ashes when the starving children got to eat ham and peas on the rare days their family had the money, I salivated on their behalf. Oh, and what a disappointment Turkish delight actually was after The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe! What are some of your most memorables?
