The Ivy: The Restaurant and Its Recipes Book

A table at the Ivy is one of the most sought-after pieces of furniture in London. At the heart of its success is the menu, a selection of dishes that are tested daily against some of the most cosmopolitan, well-fed palates in the world. Everyone who eats there has a favorite dish: the Crispy Duck and Watercress Salad, the Malayan Spiced Noodles with Roasted Pumpkin, the Thai Baked Sea Bass with Fragrant Rice, or the Ivy's renowned Sticky Toffee Pudding. Now, the Ivy has produced a cookbook that is genuinely suitable for the home kitchen. While some of the recipes are surprisingly simple and others more demanding, all are absolutely dependable. The recipes are presented along with a behind-the-scenes look at the running of the restaurant, accompanied by a lavish selection of artful photography. A.A. Gill is the award-winning restaurant critic of The Sunday Times of London.Read More
