Useful cookbook with a humorous format. July 12, 2008
In the Introduction, the author treats us to some jocular male chauvinism as he argues that men ought to demand their right to be allowed to cook. "After all, we have a habit of succeeding at whatever we put our hands to. Since the dawn of mankind males have set and also changed the course of history. We have built empires, led entire nations to the pinnacle of civilization, sailed the Seven Seas, and scaled mountains to heights the girls have yet to approach." And more in that vein, including pointing out that the great chefs have all been men.
Each chapter begins with tongue-in-cheek instructions about what to cook for your lady friend to create a properly amorous mood. Quite aside from all this humor, this is a very good cookbook. There are detailed instructions about what kind of equipment you need to really cook, and as an enthusiastic foodie myself, I can testify that the recipes, many of which are French, are very good.
