Patrick O'Connell's Refined American Cuisine
Patrick's follow-up book. "Patrick O'Connell's Refined American Cuisine" celebrates the coming of age of American cuisine.
Publishers Weekly has called Patrick O'Connell's Refined American Cuisine "extraordinary", "a jewel-and a watershed"...
Patrick O'Connell is one of the pioneers in the evolution of American cooking over the last quarter century. In this groundbreaking new cookbook, Patrick celebrates the coming-of-age of American cooking and illustrates that we at last have our own equivalent to the haute cuisine of the great chefs of Europe. He manages to demonstrate that reproducing his versions of refined American cuisine is not only surprisingly doable but often easier than replicating the classic American dishes we grew up with.
The new Relais & Châteaux Cookbooks
On September 28th, Relais & Châteaux released two new and different cookbooks. These books provide a virtual culinary journey across our vast continent and allow the reader to take an armchair tour of some of the most memorable dining destinations in North America. This is the first time so many talented chefs have collaborated on a project which not only illustrates their artistry but also highlights the best products their regions have to offer. Someone once said that "to know food is to know everything: history, geography, language, culture and art" and from these books we can truly appreciate the incredible diversity of North America.
We hope you'll fall in love with some of the recipes in these books and make them your own, but more importantly that you'll be inspired to discover some of the best kept secrets in the world -- the charmingly unique destinations where each of these chefs waits to welcome you.
