Lebovitz, a pastry chef and cookbook author, always dreamed about living in Paris. This collection of recipes and observations is a deliciously funny, offbeat, and irreverent look at the city of lights, cheese, chocolate, and other confections. Reviews"David Lebovitz is the greatest thing to happen to dessert since the spoon, but this time he shows that beyond his artful nose and flawless taste, he also has a keen reporter's eye. If Paris intrigues, excites, or merely interests you, read this book."--Mort Rosenblum, author of "The Secret Life of the Seine," "A Goose in Toulouse," "Olives," and "Chocolate: A Bittersweet Story of Dark and Light" "Cooks aren't usually such good writers--so funny, skeptical, and observant. He's a wonderful one. Also, I'm a fervent fan of his ice-cream book, so I can't wait to cook my way through his other recipes." --Diane Johnson, author of "Le Divorce " |
