David Rosengarten Entertains by David Rosengarten
As an award-winning Food Network television host, cookbook author, cooking teacher, and food and wine writer, David Rosengarten clearly knows a thing or two about food and drink, not to mention putting on a great show. Now he brings all three together in an imaginative collection of dinner parties that can transform even a casual get-together into a memorable occasion. In this collection, each party features a complete menu of delicious-yet-doable recipes that are centered around a specific food or ethnic theme, a Texas BBQ, Cassoulet ('Show up chez-moi for beans and wienies'), or a Tapas Time night featuring Spanish Ham and Chorizos.Planning and presentation ideas show how to make a gathering truly special, from table-setting tips to music suggestions and more. Top photographer Quentin Bacon captures the food and the celebratory mood with style and dramatic flair. Throughout the book, Rosengarten is the perfect host, with a style that is as bold, lively, and entertaining as the parties themselves.
"He not only has a plan, he gives readers 16 completely worked-out blueprints for foolproof parties.." (Associated Press, November 26-29, 2004) "...dinner party is an opportunity to show warmth, affection, and respect for guests...Rosengarten...offers a wealth of opportunities." (Library Journal, October 15, 2004) "...Rosengarten has gone to great lengths to think of every detail of 16 themed fetes". (Publishers Weekly, September 13, 2004)
