Mark Peel & Nancy Silverton at Home: Two Chefs Cook for Family & Friends
Silverton and Peel are the chef/owners of Los Angeles's Campanile restaurant and La Brea Bakery; Silverton, an acclaimed pastry chef, is also author of Desserts ( LJ 11/15/86). They are the parents of two young children, and here they present a collection of the dishes they like to cook when they're not at the restaurant and bakery. Although some of the recipes may seem easier to those with professional backgrounds than to the average home cook, there are lots of relatively simple dishes here, and lots of attention is paid to what kids really eat. Fun, with new ideas for both family breakfasts and lunches and company dinners; recommended for area and larger collections. HomeStyle alternate.Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.
