Praise for Remembrance of Things Paris:
“With selections from the last six decades, this book gives the
reader snapshots of Paris that are crisp, clear, and often
poignant, proof that things really have changed in the temple of
food. The cameos of the sleeves-rolled-up individuals behind the
big names—including Berthillon and Lenôtre—read like fiction and
remind us of a fundamental truth: creating magic in the kitchen is
hard work, and the French have been at it far longer than others.
An entrancing book.”
—Thad Carhart, New York Times-bestselling author of The Piano Shop
