Description: Originally published in 1970 by Simon and Schuster.
Review Quotes: "Earlier this year, OFM's expert panel voted this the best cookbook of all time. Only problem was it was out of print. But it has been reissued, so now everyone can delight in Olney's passionate, idiosyncratic rendering of French cuisine."
--The Observer Food Monthly, 25 Best Cookbooks of 2010, 11/14/10
--Newark Star Ledger "The writer to whom Olney immediately demands comparison is Elizabeth David. The prose of each is characterized by an aesthetic sensibility enmeshed in the stabilizing regimen of a strictly imposed self-discipline."
--John Thorne, author of Pot on the Fire "Richard Olney is someone who truly lives what he believes-cooking simply from the garden and drinking wonderful wines from the cellar. His FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK is an inspiration, giving a lasting insight into a special way of life."
--Alice Waters
