About the Author

Amy Reiley, Master of Gastronomy and author of Fork Me, Spoon Me, is an authority on wine AND on aphrodisiac foods . She scours the globe for foods to put you in the mood. While at France’s culinary temple, Le Cordon Bleu, Amy rose to notoriety for her work in culinary aphrodisiacs. In 2006, Amy releases her first book, Fork Me, Spoon Me: the sensual cookbook, cementing her role as America’s leading aphrodisiac food authority. Filling a niche in the cookbook market, demand resulted in the book’s second edition less than two years later. But Amy’s culinary knowledge is not limited to aphrodisiac foods. In June 2005, Amy was singled out as one of the five best female wine professionals in the world of the year by France’s Wine Women awards. As an internationally recognized journalist, Amy has shared her food and wine knowledge in such publications as Variety, Gault Millau; Daily Candy and Las Vegas magazine. She also writes a syndicated column, Woman on Wine, and serves on The Tasting Panel, (formerly of Bon Appetit magazine).
