Igni by Aaron Turner

"a stunning work of art, and the most beautiful cookbook I've seen in years." - Savuer

Documenting a warts-and-all account of what it takes to open and run a new restaurant, chef and owner Aaron Turner reveals the daily joys and challenges he faced in starting his fine-dining destination restaurant, Igni.

From the acclaim to the financial strain, the book tells the story through Aaron's own dated diary entries, the restaurant's recipe development process and the truly stunning images that document each step of the way.

At the heart of the book are Turner's exquisite recipes for charcoal-grilled dishes that have secured the restaurant its worldwide reputation for uniform excellence.

 

"a stunning work of art, and the most beautiful cookbook I've seen in years" - Savuer

"It’s filled with the angst and drama of the opening of Turner’s critically acclaimed restaurant, Igni, in Geelong. It’s raw and real, and Julian Kingma’s moody photographs only add depth to the drama." - Barbara Sweeney, Country Style

Growing up by the coast in Portland, Victoria, Aaron Turner studied graphic design before travelling and working overseas.
