About the Author
Nicholas Lander views menus from a highly unusual perspective as the only restaurant critic to have owned and run one of Londons most successful restaurants. He established LEscargot in Soho in the 1980s when he was among the first British restauranteurs to write his menus in English and to change them according to the seasons. For the past twenty-seven years he has reviewed restaurants and menus from around the world in his role as restaurant critic for the Financial Times. His first book, The Art of the Restauranteur (2012), profiled twenty of the worlds best restauranteurs and was named a Book of the Year by The Economist.

From the Financial Times's long-standing restaurant critic Nicholas Lander comes this celebration of the history, design and evolution of the world's favourite piece of paper: the menu.On the Menu is a stunning collection of menus, from those at the cutting edge of contemporary culinary innovation, like Copenhagen's Noma, to those that are relics from another time: a 1970s menu from L'Escargot on which all main courses cost less than one pound; the last menu from The French House Dining Room before Fergus Henderson departed for St John; a Christmas feast of zoo animals served during the Siege of Paris in 1870; and three of the world's original restaurant menus - now hanging proudly in London's Le Gavroche.
