Book Reviews of Escoffier: The Complete Guide to the Art of Modern Cookery
Book Review: Not for the faint of heart
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not your average cookbook. This is more of a text book or a reference guide and should be treated as such. The recipes contained in this book require a fair amount of culinary knowledge to be prepared successfully. If you are a professional chef or a culinary student and you don't already own it I would highly recommend it.
