Le Gavroche Cookbook: (Ten Recipes): Ten Recipes from One of the World's Great Restaurants

by Michel Roux Jr. (Author)

Synopsis

The creation of Albert and Michel Roux, Le Gavroche opened in 1967. At the time, it was the only restaurant of its kind - serving classical French food with the highest standards of cooking and service - in London. Now run by Michel Roux Jr., it retains its two Michelin stars, and continues those high standards for which it has always been famous. Michel Roux Jr's style is 'modern French' - classical French cooking with a lighter and less rich approach, and subtly influenced by Mediterranean and Asian flavours and ingredients. This critically acclaimed book is a unique slice of culinary history - a selection of the best of Le Gavroche's cooking over the last thirty years with ten delicious seasonal recipes carefully chosen for cooking at home.
