I love Thomas Keller's cookbooks. They are works of art. This one is the most accessible for the amateur cook. It has a casual feel to it, with drawings that depict things like, how to make the perfect salad deressing, or ingredients for pea soup. I do not always agree with him on the recipe, but the way he sees it coming together are well described in the book.
The cook book is the exact same size as Under Pressure, his other recent cookbook--it is an elegant book that would be equally at home on a coffee table as in a kitchen, with exceptional photographs of almost every recipe, but it is also well made to be on a kitchen bookshelf, to be filed with Keller's other three cookbooks. My last thought is that it would be worth a trip to Yountville to visit these three establishments.
