"An outstanding cornucopia of enthusiastically recommended home-style recipes offering a very special touch of taste-tested, appetite-satisfying charm." -Midwest Book Review "Delight in the recipes and 50 years of reflections from Leah Chase and her New Orleans restaurant, Dooky Chase, a benchmark for Creole cooking. . . . It's like having Chase cooking with you." -Desert Leaf magazine Reflecting on the long course of life, one often finds that wonderful meals, taken in the company of family and friends, rise to the foreground of memory. And Still I Cook contains reflections on life, business, family, and friends, with the recipes that bring them all together. There are special dishes for organizations that have gathered at the restaurant for years, "off the menu" specials prepared for customers with special needs or a craving for something different, and a number of classic Creole and gourmet recipes, with every recipe necessary to warm the heart and nourish the soul. Leah Chase began working at the Dooky Chase Restaurant in 1946, under the watchful eye of her new mother-in-law. She soon transformed the po'-boy and lottery-ticket shop into one of the first restaurants in the country where African Americans could sit down and enjoy a carefully prepared meal. But her influence does not end at the restaurant. In 1997, she was presented with the Neiv Orleans Times-Picayune Loving Cup for the hundreds of hours she dedicated to the New Orleans Museum of Art and other nonprofit organizations in the city. She received the Southern Foodways Alliance's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2000 and, in the same year, was presented with the Ella Brennan Savoir Faire Award for Excellence, conferred by the New Orleans chapter of the American Culinary Fed-eration. In 2009, the Southern Food and Beverage Museum created the Leah Chase Louisiana Gallery in her honor. She is the author of The Dooky Chase Cookbook and is the subject of a biography written by Carol Allen, titled Leah Chase: Listen, I Say Like This. Both are published by Pelican.
