Wilfrid Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 This may be significant, but hardly antique or collectible, so this is the right thread. Just picked up the Sterns' Roadfood for $5 in a used book store. But it's a revised edition (2011) and I am pretty sure I read the original 1978 version from a library, so this would have a lot of entries which are new to me, and in the NYC section I see places that weren't around in '78.

StephanieL Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I just picked up Eat Something from the guy who started Wise Sons deli here in SF. It's part cookbook and part snarky/loving remembrances of holidays, etc. (in the spirit of Bar Mitzvah Disco). There's a cocktail that involves prunes soaked in gin, so I've got a batch going in the fridge and will report back. I'm also looking forward to trying the Fall Vegetable Hash around Rosh Hashanah time and the Matzoquiles come Passover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Many years ago I had a kosher Indian cookbook with recipes from Bombay and Cochin. I loaned it to my boss, who said, “what a thoughtful gift!” Never saw it again.

hollywood Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Who is worse, that boss or the one who would take the book you gave him, neatly cut out the front page you had inscribed to him and give it to a coworker a few years later? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilfrid Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 This surprised me by arriving today. Must have been one of those late night impulse purchases. On the upside, it was priced at $1.50. On the downside, it’s in French. Nice pictures though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StephanieL Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 N just got this, more for inspiration than anything else. I had to stop her from buying a cookbook on Lebanese cuisine as well, because we have plenty of Middle Eastern recipes already.

Wilfrid Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Les Grands Chefs has no recipes, so no pressure. Just photos, long essays in French and some menus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
