"Beautiful, simple, seasonal. This is a well-written cookbook that is divided into seasons, and then provides several full menus for 8 people. So far I have made several of the individual recipes, mostly for the sides and desserts. All of them were delicious and uncomplicated. The Italian Plum Cake is cooling downstairs at the moment and was a snap to make. I look forward to making my way through the book. I might even be tempted to try the Pig Ear salad."
"The main problem with this book is that there's no reason for its existence. All the recipes in here, by and large, are well-known ones decades or even centuries old. You don't need this book to acquire those recipes."
"This book is pure, unadulterated food porn. The pictures are extraordinary, the recipes are amazing on the surface. I've only given it three stars because the recipes and methodologies are all but inaccessible to the majority of home cooks. As an inspirational book, the book is outstanding. As a practical book; it is completely impractical for anyone living outside of food Meccas like NYC. But it is gorgeous and well written and a joy to flip through and read."
