"I never would have believed that anything could make me want to go eat English food in Lyon, but Higgins's delightful book has done so." --Mimi Sheraton When Tom Higgins, a translator, and his wife,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I love the book. It's like you're actually there in that little restaurant, helping Mr. Higgins make some of his pies. I just thought it will be like one of those "French or Foe book" with a lot of generalizations, but this book is amazingly light, and very informative--talking about the restaurant business,describing the beautiful scenery, it even contains some of his recipes! It's like a journal, but it's not--anyone can understand what he's talking about. Great narrative and refreshing characters. Higgins has a great sense of humor.
