I ordered the book per your records but I never received it. I trust I was not charged! Since that order I have eaten there and it was fabulus.

For the most part good. However, extremely disappointed in the large amount of information on foie gras. Told quite a bit EXCEPT how extremely inhumane the preparation of this brutal ‘delicacy’ is.

My wife received this book as a gift and thought it was horrible. She cooks alot and found this to be very disappointing, both practically and visually. It doesn’t work in the kitchen or the living room
Buy something else!

I haven’t received the book yet but I have eaten at the Laundry twice and it was stunning both times. Three hours of blissful dining. I just ordered my copy and I can’t wait to get it.

This book could have been useable and interesting, but as a well turned out cook myself. these recipes were too much. The etherial and gourmet spiritual pomposity really turned me away. For example, he gives a butter sauce recipe of sorts, but never really spells it out. The rabbit passage was the final straw. For this chef to consider himself a “god” ! of food, rabbit spirits, etc… thanks for reminding me to stay vegetarian. How totally unappetizing!! I burned the book I was so mad.
