Complete with recipes for French cuisine classics, and contemporary cocktails, this book delves into the history, music, design, and food that adds up to the irresistible traditional French brasserie.

Throughout these pages, secrets are revealed behind cooking on a wood-burning grill, how to build the perfect cheese board, and how to begin exploring the many nuances of absinthe. The anecdotes, photos, and chef advice are inspiration for gathering around the table to experience the everyday pleasures of joie de vivre.
