The Slanted Door: Modern Vietnamese Food [A Cookbook]

Description

Review "Each tantalizing recipe in The Slanted Door cookbook reminds me of a meal I've savored over the past fifteen years. In fact, I couldn't stop smiling as I read this book! Thanks to Charles Phan, many of us have learned to love Vietnamese cooking through his lens which is as authentically San Francisco as it is Vietnamese. All of the signature dishes from The Slanted Door are here, beckoning you to cook them, and best of all, you actually can." -Danny Meyer, restaurateur and author of Setting the Table "I have had more great meals at The Slanted Door than I can count. The cuisine has never failed to be reliably delicious. Charles Phan has brilliantly turned America on to the flavors of Vietnam and the genius of his thinking is laid out in this book." ---Rajat Parr, co-author of Secrets of the Sommeliers and wine director of the Mina Group About the Author CHARLES PHAN is the executive chef and owner of The Slanted Door family of restaurants, and the author of IACP award-winning book, Vietnamese Home Cooking.
