Au Pied de Cochon

The Album

By Picard, Martin & Bourdain, Anthony

Publishers Summary:
Owner and chef of Montreal's innovative Au Pied de Cochon restaurant, Martin Picard brings together 55 of the restaurant's recipes in this sumptuous album, which not only dodges culinary fads but also breaks the mold of the typical cookbook in its playful, award-winning design.

Six hundred color photos and 50 illustrations complement the lively text.
