The Harry's Bar Cookbook

by Joseph D Bates Jr. (Illustrator), Arrigo Cipraini

There is only one Harry's Bar. Located in Venice's Calle Vallaresso, near the Piazza San Marco, this legendary restaurant has been, for five decades, the meeting place for artists, writers, royalty, maestros, divas, celebrities, the very rich, and lots of ordinary - but very wise - Americans and Europeans. Everyone from the Windsors and the Onassises and the Burtons to Cole Porter, Ernest Hemmingway, and Joan Crawford has come here for great food, fine drinks, and the imcomparable ambience. Now, to the delight of his legions of customers, Arrigo Cipriani shares his favorite stories about Harry's Bar and its secrets - and reveals for the first time his treasured recipes for the restaurant's most popular dishes.

what a fun read! As soon as my colleague Nancy Fondaco returns it I will start trying more recipes from this. A must for any lover of Italian food or culture.
