Garden Table Elegant Outdoor Entertaining

Who hasn't gazed out a window and pictured the sumptuous meals, past and future, set in their own garden? With a trio of top food experts--photographer, writer and chef--enter a country garden and chronicle its life in the course of a year. A pictorial account of the garden as dining room takes us on a tour that begins with the chill remnants of winter, with earthy pleasures like truffle for tagliatelle; into the promise of spring with a potato, asparagus, and celeraic terrine; the glory of summer and the bounty it delivers for a sumptuous vegetable quiche...into a late, lazy visit to the "apple and mint" garden; and, finally, the chill of bittersweet autumn, complete with pot-au-feu or pumpkin soup. With scores of stylish table settings, this visual feast and treasury of exquisite recipes is a visit to a "dining room" not soon forgotten.Hageman, Kees is the author of 'Garden Table Elegant Outdoor Entertaining' with ISBN 9781586630119 and ISBN 1586630113.
