5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tasting Recipes That Work, 4 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This cookbook is a real pleasure. First the recipes work in the home kitchen, unlike so many recipes from celebrity chefs which have been untested or poorly converted. I especially like the hints/tips/descriptions at the top of each recipe. They are a great aid in helping you anticipate what will need to be done, or in menu design. This is a cookbook that will build your culnary confidence while allowing you to impress family and friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for people who like to eat out, but mostly eat in.uite, 29 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I am a home cook of 40 years and a cook book junkie. Contrary to Time Magazine, I think this is one of the best books by prominate restaurant chefs. I have cooked about 12 recipes and only had one failure, the leek terrine, which tasted okay, but fell apart. I also learned how to oven roast at high temperatures particularily chicken which will be on my forever list.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Honeymoon Continues, 17 Dec 1998
By A Customer
My wife and I bought this book at Jean-Georges' Restaurtant Nougatine after dining there on our honeymoon. In addition to the recipes the other reviewers mentioned, I can attest to simplicity and elegance of the Coconut Sorbet, Butternut Squash Soup, and Potato Ravioli. A fascinating and extremely usable cookbook by a master chef.

5.0 out of 5 stars An unusual cookbook with straight forward fantastic recipes.
I once read that if you can find a single worthwhile recipe in a cookbook, it is worth having on your shelf. This text has several that a neophyte can easily master. Read more
