Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook

[Weeks]

French Laundary is a book written by Micheal Ruhlman about Thomas Keller's restaurant in the Napa Valley of California, The French Laundary. Apparently the food is some sort of transcendental experience. I read through some of the book, and it's a great read (as are all of Mr Ruhlman's books), and the recipes are pretty extravagant. Check it out at your local Barnes & Noble.

Thanks Weeks! Will check Amazon.com. No Barnes & Noble in my neck of the woods...

Ardge I have those Le Cordon Bleu books by Wayne Gisslen too! Professional Cooking and Professional Baking! They weigh a ton! [/i]

Hey CS, Chef George Jack was a consultant and recipe tester for Gisslen's Pro Baking book. His name is in the credits somewhere. I was taught by Chef George Jack while in culinary school. He was my breads and custards instructor. I asked him to autograph the book. He laughed, and declined at first. After I pressed him, he caved in. He's like, "Thanks RJ, that was my first autograph."

Great book... but I can do without the metric recipes.
