At Home with Michael Chiarello – Easy Entertaining: recipes, ideas, inspiration  (Michael Chiarello)

Per Powell’s Books: “Celebrated television, cookbook, and restaurant chef Michael Chiarello is a master of simple, casually elegant cooking and a fabulous host. In this cookbook packed with great recipes, gorgeous photographs, and inspiring entertaining ideas he shares his secrets for celebrating in style (and having fun doing it too!). Whether hosting four around the kitchen counter or a hundred for a cocktail party, readers will find everything from appetizers and main courses to desserts and drinks (over 130 recipes in all), time-saving tips, an all-important section on stocking the pantry (great for impromptu gatherings!), whimsical menus, and creative settings and table arrangements.” Other sources describe it as a “Must Have.”  Mr. Chiarello was the founder of the seminal California restaurant Tre Vigne. He hosted NapaStyle on TV and had a food line of the same name. This is a 2005 first edition in very good condition, with dust jacket.  (Previously Owned)
