Review Summary: Academically and Professionally Superb
Review: This book is without doubt one of the most impressive, concise, organised and easy to follow cookery books ever written. The vast culinary experience of Mr R.J Kaufmann is evident in the resulting products of these superb recipes and I can strongly recommend this to anybody who is looking to begin or further their cooking endeavours.

You need not take much notice of the one star review above as it certainly doesn't tally up with the fact that this book has been revised and reprinted numerous times since the 1st edition in 1972 and, even to this day, continues to be used as practical and teaching material in culinary institutions around the English-speaking world. "Painfully old fashioned" is, quite frankly, a "painfully" uneducated description of this comprehensive, articulate and fruitful collection of invaluable culinary recipes, techniques and advice.

Review Summary: Painfully old-fashioned
Review: This book teaches you how to cook in the style of a 1960s French restaurant. The book just contains old recipes, and absolutely nothing for vegetarians. Get Leith's Cookery Bible instead - it is fantastic.
