Review:
My father sold groceries to Russ Vernon's dad at the original Highland Square store seventy-five years ago. It has been a continuing joy to watch West Point Market grow into a national treasure. Whenever it shares its recipes, count me in. Whether it's Mrs. Depue's Lemon Pie, Killer or Divine Brownies, Butterscotch Rum Mousse, or easy-to-make Key Lime Tarts, this glorious collection of West Point favorites rings my bell and lights my fire. It's simply the very best. --Bob Lape, Emmy Award winner, Food journalist for WCBS and Crain's New York Business in New York
There is something about the course through the store-through the Great Wine Forest, around the Whispering Cave of the Cheeses, past Mrs. Ticklemore's Tearoom and into the Plain of the Killer Brownies-that is at once directly familiar and just beyond objective description. Like the sound of an approaching blimp and the concept of the Don Drumm wedding gift, it's something we natives share and understand intrinsically and it improves our lives in a particularly local way. It's the best kind of provincialism, the aspect of life in a place that enjoys certain flavors exclusively. This is the place where, the only time in my life I ever needed to purchase octopus, I was able to. I bought octopus off the rack, as they say in the sportcoat business. --From the foreword by David Giffels
