Marcel Desaulniers, executive chef and co-owner of The Trellis Restaurant in Colonial Williamsburg, has been named in Food and Wine's Honor Roll of Chefs and in Cook's magazine's Who's Who of Cooking. In 1988 he became the first chef from the South to be honored by the James Beard Foundation as a Great American Chef. He has been inducted into the American Academy of Chefs, the Honor Society of the American Culinary Federation, and he is on the Board of Trustees of the Culinary Institute of America. In addition, The Trellis Restaurant has won Restaurants and Institutions magazine's prestigious Ivy Award.
Desaulniers is the author of The Trellis Cookbook; Death by Chocolate, which won the James Beard Award as the Best Baking and Dessert Book of 1992; The Burger Meisters, which won the James Beard Award as the Best Book on a Single Subject in 1994; Desserts to Die For, which in 1995 won both the Julia Child Award for the Best Book in the Bread, Other Baking, and Sweets category and the Cooks' Choice award; An Alphabet of Sweets, with art by Nancy Thomas; and, most recently, Death by Chocolate Cookies. The host of the immensely popular Death by Chocolate and Burger Meisters television series, Marcel Desaulniers lives, writes, and cooks in Williamsburg, Virginia.
Desaulniers, executive chef of The Trellis Restaurant in Williamsburg, VA, is the prolific author of six other cookbooks, three of which feature fabulous desserts. In fact, his irresistible Death by Chocolate Cookies (LJ 12/97) was published just a few months ago, and perhaps that's partly why Salad Days doesn't seem to convey the same enthusiasm as the more indulgent dessert books. It includes 30 master salad recipes, grouped under Greens, Beans, Grains, and Fruits, with two variations for each; the basic recipes are vegetarian, the variations add meat, fish, or poultry. The recipes are clearly written, as always, but many of them are on the complicated side, and the tone of the lengthy chef's notes sometimes seems forced. Nevertheless, Desaulniers (who has had several TV cooking series) and his books are popular, and most collections will want to consider his latest.
