But Turning the Tables is much more than an invaluable how-to
guide to eating out. Written with style and humor, it's an in-depth
exploration of the restaurant world -- a celebration of the
incredibly intricate workings of professional kitchens and dining
rooms. It is a delectable feast from a uniquely down-to-earth
gourmet who has crisscrossed North America in search of culinary
knowledge at every level of the food chain -- from five-star
temples of haute cuisine to barbecue joints and hot dog stands --
and who has never been afraid to get his hands greasy on the other
side of the swinging kitchen door.
In this delightful sequel to her bestseller Tender at the Bone,
Ruth Reichl returns with more tales of love, life, and marvelous
meals. Comfort Me with Apples picks up Reichl's story in 1978, when
she puts down her chef's toque and embarks on a career as a
restaurant critic. Her pursuit of good food and good company leads
her to New York and China, France and Los Angeles, and her stories
of cooking and dining with world-famous chefs range from the madcap
to the sublime. Through it all, Reichl makes each and every course
a hilarious and instructive occasion for novices and experts alike.
She shares some of her favorite recipes while also sharing the
intimacies of her personal life in a style so honest and warm that
readers will feel they are enjoying a conversation over a meal with
a friend.
"Honey" as a word may sound singular though it actually encompasses
several products with similar properties as well as subtle
differences. This book brings out the various aspects and types of
honeys and enlightens the readers on the classification of this
wonderful natural product. This book should serve as a useful
handbook on Honey as virtually every aspect of this product has
been covered exhaustively in brief and lucid language. As someone
working with food for several decades, I enjoyed the recipes and
would have enjoyed reading and trying out more of them. However,
good cooks can always make use of the information contained in this
book, to innovate and produce more recipes with honey -- in
particular, by using the variations in flavours of the different
types of Honey to obtain the taste and aroma they desire in the end
product.

Adapted from historical texts and rare African-American cookbooks, the 125 recipes of Jubilee paint a rich, varied picture of the true history of African-American cooking: a cuisine far beyond soul food.
Toni Tipton-Martin, the first African-American food editor of a daily American newspaper, is the author of the James Beard Award-winning The Jemima Code, a history of African-American cooking found in--and between--the lines of three centuries' worth of African-American cookbooks. Tipton-Martin builds on that research in Jubilee, adapting recipes from those historic texts for the modern kitchen. What we find is a world of African-American cuisine--made by enslaved master chefs, free caterers, and black entrepreneurs and culinary stars--that goes far beyond soul food. It's a cuisine that was developed in the homes of the elite and middle class; that takes inspiration from around the globe; that is a diverse, varied style of cooking that has created much of what we know of as American cuisine.

service and the adrenalin-rush as the orders start coming in.
