Full Description
Make every meal a feast and every moment with loved ones an occasion with Come for Dinner "Before chefs became philosophers, trendsetters, and TV stars, there was Leslie Revsin, a cook whose instinct for flavor is matched only by her sense of nurture. She has never stopped cooking from the heart, and I have never stopped wishing I could cook just like she does every night of the week. Now that she's written a book, I can." -Molly O'Neill, host of the PBS series Great Food and author of the New York Cookbook "The food revolution continues: simpler, less fussy, more delicious dining. With this great new book, Leslie Revsin is leading the charge!" -David Rosengarten, Editor-in-Chief, The Rosengarten Report
