The best design and the best cooking both involve paring down to essentials that are a pleasure to the eye and the palate. Renowned architect John Pawson and food writer Annie Bell were the geniuses behind this calmly gorgeous cookbook that might also inspire you to redecorate. The recipes and flavors throughout are sophisticated yet accessible, with something to satisfy everyone at the table and enough good food to cook for months without repeating a meal. This first U.S. edition, first printing, is in very good condition: some shelf wear to the jacket with outer page edges yellowed, otherwise clear and crisp.
