In this book he unleashes his quirkily obsessive curiosity on a variety of dishes-- dry-aged steak, turducken, boudin noir, sea urchin, espresso, tacos, caviar, salt --conducting experiments, puncturing myths. A very fun and enlightening read. Sat Nov 23 10:47:00 -0800 2002 0 Tom Meg 1 1581432 You just made my day! I'm out of the loop- didn't even know about this new collection. Does anyone else clip and save his Vogue pieces? (sounds like that is where many from this book are from......) Sat Nov 23 21:17:00 -0800 2002 1581395 0 Jackie Avery
