The drummer and author's Something to Food About: Exploring Creativity with America's Most Innovative Chefs will chronicle his favourite places to eat and the cooks who run the kitchens.

Announcing the news on Monday (26Oct15), he tweeted, "Number 3! Just about finished."

The book will be his third, and follow the success of Mo' Meta Blues: The World According to Questlove and Soul Train: The Music, Dance and Style of a Generation.

The Roots star's new book will be available next spring (16).

Questlove has already built up a reputation for being a foodie, thanks to the dishes he posts regularly on his Instagram.com account.

His new book will include interviews with top chefs Daniel Humm and Ludo Lefebvre, among others.
