Lunch in Paris

Description

Lunch in Paris is a tantalising daytrip through the City of Light, that works out a fair bit cheaper than a return ticket to France. Each chapter focusses on one of Paris' arrondissements (neighbourhoods) and is studded with dreamy location photography. With 50 simple and classic examples of French cuisine, this book proves that you need not go to Le Cordon Bleu culinary school to perfect a Pork and Pistachio Terrine. Or a Caramelised Onion and Goat's Cheese Tartlets. Or an Olive and Anchovy Pissaladiere. Or a Comte and Asparagus Tart (among many more). With poetic and loving descriptions of each arrondissement, Lunch in Paris lets you bring the flavour of France to your very own kitchen. Trust us: your family and friends will love you all the more for it. Bon appetit!

"With simple instructions for unpretentious dishes like tomato tartlets and salmon rillettes, this is the closest you can get to enjoying lunch in Paris without buying tickets from Air France." -Forbes.com
