Get this book for no other reason that to appreciate the excellent food photos, almost 3-D they are so vivid. Even better, the selection of recipes are so clearly described that even I, a klutz in the kitchen, can make the wonderful dishes. This is French cooking at its simplest and best. Buy it and enjoy.

I really love this book! The pictures are great and the recipes are what I was looking for! I highly recommend it!

Loved this book. Great pictures. Love the side captions. Wiliam Sonoma does it right with these books. I own the entire collection and plan on having them for a very long time. Hopefully one day will be able to say I made every recipe in the book which seems possible. Some people my not like the limited number of recipes but I feel this is a great example of quality over quantity. Somebody really put some love in this book and it shows. Everything I have made so far has been great. Once you buy one you will want them all.

This cookbook is typical of the small Williams Sonoma cookbooks, gives you the basic French dishes we are familiar with--French Onion soup, Creme Brulee. I find most of these small basic cookbooks have become my "go-to" recipe books, written simply with good pictures of what the dish looks like. No huge surprises, just easy to follow and reliable results.

With explanation of terms, simple to follow recipes and photographs, this is not just another cook book.

I bought this book on a whim and boy am I glad I did! It is an excellent introduction to French cooking. The recipes cover some of the classics of French food plus side dishes and desserts and my guests have always been impressed. The version of French onion soup contained here is awesome and the best I have ever tasted (if I say so myself!) A great addition to any cook's library.

This cookbook was a gift for our daughter-in-law. Good cookbook, easy to follow, with great recipes. We would purchase it again.
