Authentic recipes from Parisian bistros capture the taste of easy, family-style French cooking. This book includes practical suggestions for creating the bistro experience at home, a menu glossary, a description of each bistro's style, and guides to nearby sites and amusements in Paris. Tunes by Edith Piaf, Django Reinhardt, and George Gershwin are performed by the Metronote Quintet, who aim to set a romantic Parisian mood that adds to the enjoyment of bistro-style dining at home. The cookbook contains contributions from Allard, Paris; Balthazar, New York; Bouchon, Napa Valley; Chez Pauline, Paris; La Poule au Pot, Paris; and La Fontaine de Mars, Paris. The music includes "April in Paris"; "Autumn Leaves"; "Under Paris Skies"; "Sweet Georgia Brown"; "La Vie en Rose"; and "Nuages".

Customer Rating:      Summary: Sucess in the kitchen! Comment: I have had great sucess with many of the recipes here. The recipes are easy to follow, the photos of the finished dish are inspiring,and the result is very tasty! There is just a step or two in these recipes that really elevate these dishes. The best Coq a vin and cauliflower gratin I have ever tasted! I look forward to trying the desserts next.The accompanying CD was a fun surprise...It is actually very pleasant to listen to when cooking: upbeat but not too loud,all rather "hummable" and fun.This cookbook and CD is perfect for a relaxing Sunday afternoon preparing a special Sunday dinner.Highly recommended.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great gift for any francophile Comment: Now a confirmed francophile after honeymooning in Paris, my daughter is delighted with this collection of authentic bistro recipes and music. With the CD and recipes, easy enough even for her novice cooking skills, she can re-create the Parisian mood at home while entertaining family and friends. The only thing lacking are more photographs of the prepared recipes as food is to be savored by our mouth, nose and eyes.
