"'Much more than a cookery book, much more. It is a beautifully illustrated travel book in its own right written by a highly intelligent woman who has done us all a favour...in a class of its own'" (Mail on Sunday)
"'Anyone who has driven through France with the red Michelin book on his or her lap will love The Elusive Truffle'" (Guardian)
"Warmly recommended" (Max Davidson Daily Telegraph)
In years gone by, the traveller in France could rely on coming across a restaurant where the tables were ready-laid with heavy cotton napkins, a carafe of wine and a basket of freshly baked bread, and where the ensuing meal would encompass recipes of remarkable local dishes handed down from generation to generation. But no longer.
In an inspiring quest for this rapidly disappearing traditional cuisine and culture, Mirabel Osler travels the length and breadth of France, focusing on individual chefs and restaurants, exploring producers and suppliers such the travelling butchers and bakers, and the local markets where much of the produce is bought. It is an enticing and evocative picture of a way of life which is fast being eroded by the modern world, but also an affirmation that, for some, the old traditions will always survive.
