Absolutely gorgeous book! I bought it because I had dinner at the restaurant every time an epicure friend came to our little town and had lunch every Thursday there too. The friends were blown away by the presentation, imagination and flavors.. I wanted a lasting memory of those times. Not only are the phorotgraphs outstanding but the recipes work for me and I get compliments on "my" cuisine (Rob's recipes). His reputation is known through me alone from California to Colorado and beyond. I have friends in St. Louis panting for the new restaurant to open. -KS. Rossman
Let's get this out of the way: yes, that's my name on the cover as "Contributions by". Why is my name there? Because I love to write and Rob Connoley is the best Chef I have ever encountered in more than a decade as a foodie and restaurant critic. That includes Thomas Keller. That includes David Chang. I could go on. What makes Rob and his cooking interesting, recommendable, and delicious? Integrity; his foundation is integrity. Integrity underlies every single thing he does. On that foundation is laid his curiosity, his talent as a cook, and his love of outdoor places. This means he will go out at 6am to snip some wild herbs for the evening's dinner service: just enough for the dishes, not nearly so much as to disrupt the growth of that patch of foliage. He wants there to be enough, always. His integrity means that taking a short-cut is not only unappealing, but it is boring. Pop-tarts from scratch? Check. Your own cured ham that takes nothing more than time? Check. The best chocolate chip cookies you've ever tasted, made with sustainable mesquite flour? Check. Rob's sweet tooth is legendary and it leads to some outstanding recipes in this book, from cookies to tea cakes to chocolates. The Ginger Horehound cookies are my favorite.-Andrea F.
This is more than food porn (although it is that too, with gorgeous photography provided by Jay Hemphill), it's an insight into the mind and ethos of a committed professional with a commitment to sustainability and responsible food production. The recipes are exotic, clear and concise - and manageable. I really enjoyed the thoughtful essays on Chef Rob's background, and food team, including foraging experts, a naturalist and his dog, Lexi. I may not cook from this cookbook everyday, but the principles it explores make me think daily about the food I purchase, prepare and consume and its impact on the local, regional and global environment. -R. Williams
