A must read!
While I agree with the other reviewer that this is not your conventional cook book- I think it's a wonderful resource for every cook. Great for "I just saw this wonderful asparagus on the market- what's the best way to cook it?." A rare opportunity to learn from the great master book is based on an weekly column written for a French magazine over a year. Each article includes a discussion about a single ingredient- from asparagus to wild hare. Robuchon writes about history, shopping tips, proper treatment and provides a few receipes that celebrate that ingredient.
A half-hearted attempt, that capitalizes on Robuchon's name.
A large formated book with some sketch plates of shellfish, vegetables etc. Instead of a cookbook I would term the work a walk through the food classes. A noble attempt at conitinuing to educate the reader on the different ways to look at food. However, for a chef of Robuchon's quality and popularity, the reader is left with a feeling of being jipped. Not really getting any more personal cooking tips, or recipes that made him famous. This might have been a better third effort, not second. Your money is better spent elsewhere.
