Not a Cookbook: A Confinement Project: My Almost 45 Years in the Restaurant Business - Paperback

by Marina Fiore (Author)

As I made it clear in the title, do not expect a cook book, let alone a well structured one. A recipe will take you to a certain story or a cooking tip, and from there, more recipes or a memory will pop up. This book follows my mind which is always musing when I cook. Food and memories go hand in hand for all of us. One thing is for sure, though: this book does its part to keep the dairy farms in business! And I hope it will keep you smiling, too.

She was supposed to stay for a year but it has been 46...She and Patrick opened Le Petit Cafe in 1977, have two children, and are still working part-time, preferring to retire gradually rather than abruptly closing the door. She loves going back to Paris but has no intention of retiring there. "We will stay in Indiana where we belong," she says. "Besides, the French complain too much!"
