The Lutece Cookbook Reviews

The Lutece Cookbook amply demonstrate why Lutece was the top rated US restaurant for almost 30 years while Andres Soltner and his wife ran it.  It is filled with the same unpretentious, but classic french recipes, the same friendly and approachable feel and the same unbeleivably outstanding end result that Andres brought to Restaurant Lutece.

I am generally not a fan of lengthy biographicals in cookbooks (after all I am generally buying them for the recipes) but somehow the extensive comments and history seem to make the recipes come more to life and encourage you to experiment and to stretch yourself...
