Publishers Text

The French, more than any other nation, have refine the art of entertaining. Whether they live in a humble cottage or a chateau and serve cuisine rustique or haute cuisine, they know exactly how to welcome guests and set a lovely table loaded with delicious dishes. Visit eighteen very different households, from Brittany to Provence, from farmhouse to apartment. Among the places you'll go and the foods you'll hear about - and perhaps try, using one of the 70 recipes here - are a painters residence in Aveyron, to eat stuffed duck; a cheesemaker's house in the Vaucluse, for an assortment of charcuterie, lamb, and orange chocolate cake; and a bull breeder's dwelling in the Camargue, where seafood is on the menu.
