I have been a Chef for 16 years. It's rare when a book excites me as much as Dominique's has. He demonstrates a fresh new approach to Classical French Cooking Techniques. The Tropical flavors that he interweaves with French influences are totally unique and exciting. The book is a must have for serious culinarians as well as the home cook.

When I visit New Orleans, Dominique's Restaurant is my favorite, so I was excited to see he had put out a cookbook. I found many of my favorites from his menu in the book which was great. It is obvious Dominique is an extraordinarily talented chef who has traveled the globe and his cuisine reflects it. His use of Asian ingredients and light approach to French food is indeed refreshing...especially coming out of a city like New Orleans. If you can't make it to his restaurant, pick up his cookbook and try your hand at his recipes. You will love the unique taste of the dishes. Here is a chef who treats food with respect and elevates it to an art form...something lacking in many of the showman T.V. chefs of today.
Fusion Food a la New Orleans
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
What a fabulous find--fusion food finally hits New Orleans. This is like no other New Orleans cookbook in my library. If you love ginger, lemon grass and healthy cuisine, you'll love cooking from this book. Not for the beginner as many of the recipes require lot's of prep. and familiarity with cooking techniques. If you are planning a dinner party or a special dinner for two, add this to your library--you won't regret it. Even if you don't cook, the pictures are beautiful and will make you want to cook so you can enjoy this amazing food.
