Summary: If I could have only one cookbook
Comment: I'm a professional private chef with an international clientelle. This book is more than just a cookbook, it's a way of life. Its all about paying attention to details.
The book is worth every penny just to read the interview with Patricia Wells; and Joel Robuchons' thoughts in the introduction. I've been re-reading just these two sections for over ten years now and am continuosly inspired.
The photographs are amazing, even frameable. One in particular I have removed and used as a cover shot for my private notebook. Its of a bottle of wine, a piece of cheese and loaf of bread. But oh..... what wine, cheese and bread! I always look at that picture to remind me whats its all about.
My copy has fallen apart long ago. The pages are now in clear sheet protectors and I travel with this book in this condition all over the world. I never leave home without it.

Summary: Destined to be a Classic Indeed
Comment: Being a huge Iron Chef fan sent me on a search for a Joel Robuchon cookbook about
a week ago. I have never been more pleased with a cookbook selection as this one.
My husband who was lucky enough to eat several meals that Robuchon had cooked
while traveling in Paris says the recipes certainly live up to his taste. The
meal that I cooked my husband has moved to the best meal I have ever fixed for
him.

Summary: Great, but not for beginners
Comment: I have the French version of this book (it sells well here in France - a good sign) and have just sent the English version to my US-based daughter at her request! It's really excellent, the recipes are delicious (do them once as prescribed, then adapt according to your own inspiration) and beautifully presented. One word of warning, it's not a basic cookbook; although some recipes are simple, it's more a book for an experienced cuisine fan (hence my four star rating, rather than five). Bon appetit !
