Synopsis
On the Menu presents over 100 stunning, full-color reproductions of menus--some at the cutting edge of contemporary culinary innovation, and others that are relics from another time: the last menu from The French House Dining Room before Fergus Henderson departed for St. John; and the final menu from Ferran Adrià's three Michelin-starred elBulli in Spain. From the classic to the innovative: a Christmas menu served during the siege of Paris in 1870, which featured rats and zoo animals; the wittily illustrated menu at Quo Vadis in London, which gave the restaurant a new lease of life; and many, many more. Between the reproductions, Lander examines the principles of menu design and layout; the evolution of wine and cocktail lists; the menu as a record of the past; and he even takes us behind the scenes at Mario Batali's Babbo, to sit in as the staff are briefed on the evening's menu. Featuring interviews with world-renowned chefs Heston Blumenthal (The Fat Duck), Massimo Bottura (Osteria Francescana), René Redzepi (Noma), Michel Roux, Jr. (Le Gavroche), April Bloomfield (The Spotted Pig), Daniel Boulud (Bar Boulud), Ruth Rogers (The River Café), and many more., On the Menu presents over 100 stunning, full-color reproductions of menus--some at the cutting edge of contemporary culinary innovation, and others that are relics from another time: the last menu from The French House Dining Room before Fergus Henderson departed for St. John; and the final menu from Ferran Adri 's three Michelin-starred elBulli in Spain.

    Excellent condition, excellent price, exactly what I ordered. High quality and appearance. The seller answered my question immediately, and I bought it soon thereafter. It was shipped quickly, taking less time than I thought it would, or even than the website said. All in all, this was an excellent experience. This seller is one of the good ones.

    I received the Cookbook in Good condition. No writing inside or on the covers. Each page is intact no tears or missing pages. Just as described by the Seller. The recipes and images are colorfully detailed and beautifully photographed ingredients are easy to find. The quality of the recipes are varied from beginner through advanced. Where the Seller dropped the price I quickly purchased the book and it arrived within two days! Super Fast. AAA+++Seller I will buy from them again.
