56. Sunday Suppers at Lucques by Suzanne Goin
Getting her start at some of the most famous restaurants in the world, including Chez Panisse, chef Suzanne Goin has created a beautiful cookbook featuring her comfort food based Sunday dinners at her restaurant. Lucques restaurant, located in Los Angeles, opened in 1998. It quickly became famous for their Sunday supper, where Goin has recreated the atmosphere of a family dinner at the restaurant. Served family style, each week the menu changes and the focus is on comfort food that is made up of seasonal produce.
This cookbook is filled with 130 recipes arranged into three course menus and is organized by season. Ninety color pictures are scattered throughout this cookbook. At the beginning of each seasonal section (the cookbook starts with Spring), a list of seasonal produce is listed in exhausting detail, and includes helpful hints such as different varieties of fruits and vegetables, how to tell if they are ripe, and how to simply prepare them. With a foreword by popular chef Alice Waters, this is a beautiful and helpful cookbook for the home chef looking to prepare something new for a Sunday dinner.
