Praise for Mastering the Art of French Eating
“Ann Mah dishes up a welcoming concoction, a good dose of French history, a personal, vibrant, enthusiastic picture of life in a country she adores. I am hungry already!” —Patricia Wells, author of The Food Lover’s Guide to Paris and Simply Truffles
“Whether you’re French of Francophile, a longtime connoisseur of French food or someone she’s just figuring out the difference between frites and frangipane, feasting through France with Ann Mah is a delicious adventure.” —Dorie Greenspan, author of Around My French Table; owner of Beuree & Sel
Mastering the Art of French Eating is interwoven with the lively characters Mah meets—from chefs to farmers to restaurateurs—and the traditional recipes she samples. Reading it will send you straight to the kitchen, or Paris—or both. Funny, intelligent, and deeply pleasurable, this is a story about love—of food, family, and France.
