Love at first sight! October 24, 2008

I saw this book in the bookstore and had to have it. More than a cookbook it's also a memoir and travel book. The pictures are gorgeous and make me feel like I could set into the French countryside. This book is a perfect book for a food or travel lover.

A beautiful book. Easy to read recipes with both metric and cup measurements. The photographs are delightful and the written information on the areas and local food is first class. A great cofee table book for everyone to enjoy. I just wish I could spend a year in the Country and sample the food first hand!
 French coffee table cuisine August 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As usual with Willan's work, this is superbly written and conceived. Everything is spelled out with the correct detail. My one objection is that, although beautiful, coffee table books are difficult to use in the kitchen. Compared to other large books, say Barbara Kafka's "Vegetable Love" or "The Silver Spoon", or Paula Wolfert's "Cooking of Southwest Fance" which are also large, this one is heavier, shinier paper, clumsier to push around.
One of my favorites. August 12, 2008

This is one of the best french cuisine books I have. It is well written and the recipes seem to be fully tested. I just wish it had more pictures but the paper quality and the print type are great. My review for the book is 5 starts but for amazon it may be only 2-3. I think they are droping the ball when it comes to packing the books for shipping. The book came a little bit damage with the jacket torn and the corners bent. I guess you can have all?
A lovely book! July 10, 2008
This is a beautiful book to look at with wonderful, old fashioned French country recipes. Anyone who likes French food, and/or who has spent any time in the French country side is bound to find a favorite dish. The photographs alone are almost worth buying the book for
