Publishers Text

Kenneth James's book is a joy to read: a first-rate biography served with lashings of wit. The text is enlivened by original recipes from Escoffier's kitchens at the Ritz, the Savoy and the Carlton hotels. It contains the story of the first peach melba and the definitive guide to preparing lobster. It is a must-buy in the age of Jamie Olivier, Gordon Ramsey and Egon Ronay.
