Among the hundreds of cookery books that I have known in
Food For Thought , Alan Murchison
Ref: BFC06
Among the hundreds of cookery books that I have known in my time, there is absolutely no doubt that Alan Murchison's 'Food For Thought' is the most beautiful I have ever seen. A veritable work of art, it is the epitome of artistic imagination and exquisite taste, truly a feast for your eyes, even surpassing the evident usefulness for the ambitious cook. Its penetrating and highly selective attention to detail is overwhelming in every way. It is amazing that it has been produced (and even published!) by Alan Murchison personally. --Egon Ronay Alan first came to work for me as Sous Chef having previously worked under a number of my protégés. During his 4 years with me at Le Manoir aux Quat Saisons I watched him develop tremendously both in and out of the kitchen to become a great master of his craft. I have been fortunate over the years to have some very talented chefs grace my kitchen and Alan is up there with the best of them. His true passion for food, creativity and attention to detail are second to none. Alan has a first class team that work very well together. The ability to motivate and get the very best out of your team is an essential part of running a restaurant and in that area he excels. In his producing his first book Alan has worked extremely hard and the results are stunning. I am very proud to give you a little Food for Thought. --Raymond Blanc This is a fantastic book with superb images and really tempting recipes that give you an insight into Alan's culinary mind. --Michael Caines
