Synopsis

Rapidly acquiring a Michelin star after opening in London in the late 1990s, Pascal's award-winning Club Gascon fast became the place to go to experience some of the best French food in the country—the food of his native South West of France, the very heart of the country's cuisine. More than 100 traditional recipes, some with modern twists and inflections, sit within a sumptuously designed and beautifully photographed book. Unashamedly sensuous food photography is accompanied by evocative images of Gascony, its food, and its people, from fellow Frenchman Jean Cazals. A food lover's delight and a cook's heaven, this is a worthy testament to the talents of both the author and his native land of Gascony.
