Congratulationsto Dryansky. It was a great pleasure to read his text, both so welldocumented and free of polemics. , A nutritious, delicious stew of a book. Coquilles, Calva and Creme is a thoughtful, informative commentary on the history of French cuisine. And it is a cookbook, with recipes for the most beloved, most characteristic, or most succulent dishes from most of the regions of France. More than anything, this is a book about integrity--in cooking, in journalism, in life--and about the importance of holding onto it in the face of pressures that are constantly working to undermine it., Gerryand Joanne Dryansky's book is a lovely ramble through a lifetime of experiencesin France's high spots and some low ones too. Reading it brings as manydelights as a marvelous long meal., Tuck this delicioustome in your hamper between Proust's madeleines and the champagne--then feastyour soul. The Dryanskys remind us that in France - at least sometimes and insome places - authenticity still rhymes with simplicity, and great writingmakes a fine relish., Has France lost its culinary edge? After decades living and chronicling the good life in Paris and overseas, Gerry and Joanne Dryansky lead us to unsung chefs still championing the country's gourmand heritage., Congratulations to Dryansky. It was a great pleasure to read his text, both so well documented and free of polemics., Dryansky apparently still thinks that traditional French cooking is something worth seeking out and enjoying and helping to preserve. Thank goodness. Coquilles, Calva, & Creme is an evocation of the kind of cooking that made French food famous in the first place. A witty, richly textured memoir., I had the incredible good luck to have dozens and dozens of French meals with Gerry and Joanne Dryansky, and he was never wrong. I mean, never. We would travel down some little street, some little restaurant, and then, delight, pure pleasure. I was back years and years to a far more delicious France. And now, he tells all. There's nobody I know, in Paris or in New York, who understands French food the way Gerry does. And surely nobody who writes about it as well as he does., Gerry and Joanne Dryansky's book is a lovely ramble through a lifetime of experiences in France's high spots and some low ones too. Reading it brings as many delights as a marvelous long meal., Coquilles, Calva, and Creme vividly brings back my years of working in Paris in the 1950s. When I contemplate my cooking journey of the last half century, from classic to nouvelle, from fusion to modern American to molecular, the only reminiscences I have is of food that touches my soul or makes me salivate. Gerry Dryansky writes honestly and eloquently about these simple, honest, essential dishes in his engaging, compelling, and delicious memoir., Ihad the incredible good luck to have dozens and dozens of French meals withGerry and Joanne Dryansky, and he was never wrong. I mean, never. We wouldtravel down some little street, some little restaurant, and then, delight, purepleasure. I was back years and years to a far more delicious France. Andnow, he tells all. There's nobody I know, in Paris or in New York, whounderstands French food the way Gerry does. And surely nobody who writes aboutit as well as he does., Coquilles, Calva, & Creme is largely a book to dream over,a catalogue of refined pleasure, a chronicle of fabulous restaurants and famous acquaintances. If you're a Francophile, oenophile or gourmet, you can certainly find an escape to a better world in Coquilles, Calva, & Creme., French food and travel with a dash of history--what a treat it is to sit at the table with this smart, engaging writer. A delicious read from start to finish., HasFrance lost its culinary edge? After decades living and chronicling the goodlife in Paris and overseas, Gerry and Joanne Dryansky lead us to unsung chefsstill championing the country's gourmand heritage.
Synopsis
A celebration and critique of the changes in the French culinary landscape and a gastronomical excursion across the French countryside in search of the unsung cooks who are still doing it right., A culinary memoir that brings to life some of the most fascinating, glamorous food years in France and reveals gastronomical treasures from gifted artisans of the French countryside. From small caf s in Paris to Normandy, Alsace, the Basque country, and beyond, Dryansky takes us on a sweeping sensory journey, with a voice as thoughtful as Kingsolver, as entertaining as Bourdain, and as cogent and critical as Pollan., A culinary memoir that brings to life some of the most fascinating, glamorous food years in France and reveals treasures from obscure gifted artisans of the French countryside.Dryansky's stories are the stuff of legend - evenings with Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent, and the historic wine auctions and memorable banquets that accompanied them - but Coquilles is more than memories. These same memories prompt a journey across modern-day France, through kitchens and farms and vineyards, offering a savory experience that can be duplicated by the reader afterwards with numerous recipes that have never been recorded.Dryansky takes us on a sweeping sensory journey with a voice as thoughtful as Kingsolver, as entertaining as Bourdain, and as cogent and critical as Pollan.

- 2***0 (130)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufShipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!Mistress of Shenstone by Florence L. Barclay HC 1910 (Nr. 335940140985)
- a***p (8)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letztes JahrBestätigter KaufI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque HC 1930 (Nr. 396258036329)
