Earlier owner's name signed on front free endpaper. Fine condition. "There was always going to be a second cookbook to trip down the little cobbled alley, past the apple orchard; perchance to explore what Delectable did not quite get round to. Hence, Sumptuous, where the journey continues with more of what I call 'brasserie luxe'. Simple, real food that requires very little guesswork. Platters piled high and served with generosity, and true pleasure, at tables laid amongst others, under a Bay tree in an old stone courtyard, or next to the crystal-clear fountain of a 17th century farmhouse, or on top of a 2000-year-old midden overlooking a desolate beach near L'Agulhas at the southernmost tip of Africa. And to finish, a soupçon of excellent brandy distilled by a long line of goddesses and their ghosts. I hope you will love the glimpse you will get of the food and the places I adore. From old-fashioned tomato stew, malva pudding and quiche Lorraine to onion soup, pork belly, cassoulet, and even crêtes and roupettes!".
