Here is one of the great cookbooks of our time, written by France's most renowned chef, Raymond Oliver, the owner of the three-star Grand Vefour in Paris, a mecca for grateful gourmets all over the world. An overnight best seller in the original French, Oliver's masterpiece has now been translated and carefully adapted by two outstanding American food and wine authorities, Nika Standen Hazelton and Jack Van Bibber, making Oliver's famed cuisine available to a whole new audience of fine food enthusiasts. For everyone who loves fine food, this book is essential. Covering every aspect of French cooking from basic fonds to wine selection, this volume contains nearly 1,500 of the finest recipes Raymond Oliver has garnered from the great French tradition, invented, rediscovered or refined in his long and brilliant career as master chef and restaurateur. It is a veritable encyclopedia of the "new art of gastronomy" he developed and which has served to settle on his shoulders the mantle of the legendary Escoffier.
