" As Instagram fills with snapshots of our daily meals and food blogs abound with images of the latest gourmet masterpieces, artist Todd Selby makes food photography feel remarkably fresh. Tonight, the fashion and lifestyle photographer will celebrate the launch of his most recent book, Edible Selby, at Mission Chinese Food in New York. A cult favorite among foodies and fashion stars, Selby \u2014 who previously took us inside the homes of cultural heavyweights with his best-selling The Selby Is in Your Place \u2014 has now turned his focus to the kitchen. From the quirky Rockaway Taco shack in Queens to top-ranked Noma in Copenhagen, Edible Selby takes an intimate look behind the swinging double doors of over 40 of the world&amp;#039;s most innovative restaurants \u2014 and inside the heads of their most brilliant culinary masters. But this gastronomic grand tour results in more than just splashy spreads. Instead, Selby presents his photographs scrapbook style \u2014 using handwritten recipes, bite-size chef profiles, and his signature watercolor sketches to truly flesh out the essence of each establishment. On October 17, Selby will be joining It chefs Danny Bowien (Mission Chinese Food), Chad Robertson (Tartine Bakery), and Caitlin and James Freeman (Blue Bottle Coffee) for an in-depth culinary conversation at 92YTribeca. Edible Selby by Todd Selby (Abrams; September 25, 2012) is available for purchase at amazon.com. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
