نقد و بررسی

\"این یک نعمت است... و این در لباس مبدل نیست.\"
--_Newark Star Ledger_

\"نویسنده که اولنی الیزابت دیوید بلافاصله مقایسه را می طلبد. نثر هر کدام با حساسیت زیبایی شناختی که در رژیم تثبیت کننده یک خود انضباطی شدیداً تحمیلی در هم آمیخته است مشخص می شود.»
--جان تورن، نویسنده Pot on the Fire

\"ریچارد اولنی کسی است که واقعاً همان چیزی را که معتقد است زندگی می کند - آشپزی ساده از باغ و نوشیدن شراب های فوق العاده از سرداب. کتاب آشپزی منوی فرانسوی او الهام بخش است و بینشی ماندگار در مورد شیوه خاصی از زندگی.\"
--آلیس واترز

Review

"Here's a blessing . . . and it's not in disguise."
--_Newark Star Ledger_

"The writer to whom Olney immediately demands comparison is Elizabeth David. The prose of each is characterized by an aesthetic sensibility enmeshed in the stabilizing regimen of a strictly imposed self-discipline."
--John Thorne, author of Pot on the Fire

"Richard Olney is someone who truly lives what he believes-cooking simply from the garden and drinking wonderful wines from the cellar. His FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK is an inspiration, giving a lasting insight into a special way of life."
--Alice Waters

Product Description

As those who knew him will attest, Francophile and food writer Richard Olney was one of a kind-a writerly cook who had a tremendous influence on American cooking via his well-worn cottage on a hillside in Provence. Born in the Midwest in 1927 and drawn to France at the tender age of twenty-four, Olney was unapologetically attracted to the style, flavors, and tastes of French cooking when most Americans were smitten by the wonders of the new prepared foods in their markets. With unrelenting passion and precision, Olney studied and explored the cuisine, carefully documenting all he had learned for future generations of chefs, cooks, and food lovers. His first of several landmark works, THE FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK, was well ahead of its time with its authentic French recipes and then-unheard-of seasonal approach to cooking. Little did we know then that THE FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK would provide inspiration for Alice Waters and her compatriots as they built the groundwork for a culinary revolution in America. Brimming with the honest and enlightening explanations of how the French really cook and the 150-plus authentic recipes, this book is a masterful resource that is a must for every serious cook.
