For 65 years, Madame Romaine de Lyon ran a popular restaurant in
midtown New York that served only eggs. But not just any eggs Mme
de Lyon, was a master omelette chef. The walls of her restaurant
were covered with signed photos of famous customers, such as Joan
Rivers, Mary Tyler Moore, Anne Bancroft, and Mel Brooks (who wrote
the screenplay for "The Producers" at his regular table in the back
of the restaurant).
Romaine's dedication to the perfect execution of the omelette
and her expertise at her craft, spread her reputation well beyond
New York City. Among the highest praise she received was from the
ultimate cooking authority: the great Julia Child. During the
omelette episode of "The French Chef," Julia holds up a copy of
"The Art of Cooking Omelettes" and recommends it to anyone
interested in cooking exquisite omelettes.
"The Art of Cooking Omelettes" is Madame Romaine de Lyon's
homage to the omelette and her life as a cook. It includes recipes
for over 500 omelettes instructions that make these culinary works
of art-the meals that made her restaurant so beloved-accessible to
everyone. But "The Art of Cooking Omelettes" is more than a simple
recipe book. It includes the charm and engaging stories of a master
chef who came to this country with nothing an built a renowned
restaurant. It is gem of a book for anyone interested in both fine
cooking and writing.
