  • Food lovers companion

    Food lovers companion , of my 30+ years in the culinary industry, this has been by far my most favorite book. I absolutely believe it should be required reading at any culinary Institute. Have fun with it because it has more information than you’ll ever need.

  • The New Food Lovers Companion is an excellent reference book.

    I am a sales manager for a foodservice distributor and have used the previous edition of this book hundreds of times to maintain the perception that I am an expert. I have given several away to employees, friends and relatives who either asked if they could have it, or asked where I got it. I have one on my desk, one in my car, and one in the kitchen at home. I just bought the new edition, and it is everything, plus. Thanks!, Dave
