Produktbeschreibung

Skirting the line between recipe-book, memoir, history and philosophy, this collection of dishes, experiences, reflections, history and philosophy raises gastronomy to an art form. It reflects an era in French cuisine: the advent of the restaurant, which gave the bourgeoisie the opportunity to select their dishes with precision and anticipation.
