{"product_id":"ma-gastronomie-9780895080257","title":"Ma Gastronomie","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince its first publication in France in 1969  Fernand Points \"Ma Gastronomie\" has taken its place among the true classics of French gastronomy  alongside works of Careme  Lucien Tendret  and Escoffier. This essential volume is as celebrated for Points wise  witty  and provocative views on food as for his remarkable  inventive recipes-over 200 of them-carefully compiled from his handwritten notes. An undisputed creative genius of French gastronomy and founder of the legendary La Pyramide restaurant  halfway between Paris and the Riviera  Fernand Point revolutionized French cuisine - purified it  simplified it - building on its traditions and creating his own versions of the great classical dishes.His peers called him Le Roi and during his reign over French cuisine there were few important world celebrities and no serious gourmet who didnt make the journey to dine at La Pyramide. His celebrated disciples  Paul Bocuse  Alain Chapel  and Jean and Pierre Troisgros  are among the worlds greatest French chefs  and his devotees include internationally acclaimed chefs Thomas Keller and Charlie Trotter. As one of his three-star disciples  Francois Bise  said  Point was an artist. Its difficult to say enough about him. In that spirit  it is not unfounded to assert that no cookbook collection is truly complete without a copy of \"Ma Gastronomie\".\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67931876327477,"sku":"ByrdShop_0895080257","price":748.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780895080257.jpg?v=1794218298","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/ma-gastronomie-9780895080257","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
