"Casual, unpredictable, delectable - so run the recipes offered up in food visionary Alice Waters" -- Elle "Ms. Waters's accessible recipes...are almost always brief and often inspired." -- New York Times Book Review "Chez Panisse...[is] the most influential American restaurant of the past generation....In the...Waters way of cooking, flavor comes to the fore and technique recedes." -- Nicholas Lemann, The New Yorker "Chez Panisse is the single best restaurant in the United States." -- Gourmet

Alice Waters is the visionary chef and owner of Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California. She is the author of four cookbooks, including Chez Panisse Vegetables and Fanny at Chez Panisse. In 1994 she founded the Edible schoolyard at Berkeley's Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School, a model curriculum that integrates organic gardening into academic classes and into the life of the school; it will soon incorporate a school lunch program in which students will prepare, serve, and share food they grow themselves, augmented by organic dairy products, grains, fruits, vegetables, meat, and fish--all locally and sustainably produced. David Lance Goines is a Berkeley printer and designer whose friendship with Alice Waters goes back more than thirty years. His famous posters, including his annual Chez Panisse birthday posters, are in the permanent Collections of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C., the Musee des Arts Decoratifs at the Louvre in Paris, the Achenbach Foundation at the California Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco.
