First edition first print hardback of LIFE IS A MENU (Reminiscences and Recipes from a Master Chef) by Michel Roux and published by Constable & Robinson Ltd in 2000. Signed (with best wishes) by Roux on the half title page.
The book is in very good condition (red cloth boards with gold lettering to spine) with only slight bumping to the corners and spine edges. The book is in a very good- unclipped dust jacket which has light creasing to the edges and a fingernail tear to the bottom back corner. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.
Michel Roux began his life's work at the age of fourteen, when his mother took him, dressed in his Sunday best, to be apprenticed at a grand patisserie in the north of Paris. There, day after day, he did nothing but break eggs, learning how to seperate the white immaculately from the yolk - the painstaking beginnings of a long, hard training in traditional French cuisine.
262 pages including Index. Illustrated with black and white photographs.
ISBN: 1841192422
