Potage Dave O'Connell

Dave O'Connell humorously shares his mostly fond memories of the ethnic neighborhoods and food scene of New York in the Seventies. He recounts the pleasures and mishaps of his internship in a hotel kitchen outside Paris. This book is a tribute to the hardworking people in the kitchen who make the glamorous dining room experience possible: in particular, Andre Guillou, a fine chef and finer human being who labored anonymously at Café des Artistes in the era before celebrity chefs.
