Book Description

Perfect for the young and young-at-heart, the continental style has taken hold in the UK in a big way, with top chefs, restaurants and cafes all embracing this modern and vibrant style. Using only the freshest ingredients in new and imaginative combinations, menus feature such mouth-watering dishes as Crispy castello on rocket with fresh cranberry dressing, Tuna steaks with a herb and anchovy vierge and baby chargrilled peppers, Warm duck breast salad with courgettes and fresh raspberries, or Mango and passion fruit creme brulee. But these are not selections from a riverside cafe menu! They are just some of the dishes from this fascinating new book, so everyone can enjoy the cafe style at home.
