Synopsis

In a world where cooking has become increasingly complex it is perhaps an opportune time to demonstrate that simply prepared and cooked food is as good, if not better than the complicated offerings recently in vogue. For years the best kept secret has been that many of the best dishes are in fact perfectly simple. This applies to both the flavor and the preparation. The quality of the ingredients comes first whilst the preparation and the cooking concentrates on bringing out the natural flavours. The recipes are classics not only because of their enduring appeal, but also because of their timeless quality, such as Soupe a I'Oignon, Steak au Poivre and Summer Pudding. This collection of mouthwatering recipes is a resource to return to again and again.

À propos de l?auteur

Sir Terence Conran is one of the world's best-known designers, retailers and restaurateurs. Born in 1931 he founded the Conran Design Studio in 1956, and in 1964 opened the first of the Habitat chain of home furnishing stores that revolutionized design on the British high street in the '60s and '70s and continued to expand its influence around the globe.

Later Terence established The Conran Shop and opened stores in London, Paris, Germany, New York, across Japan as well as his largest store ever in Seoul, South Korea.

In the 1990s Terence founded Conran Restaurants, opening iconic restaurants, hotels and bars around the world including Quaglino's, Bluebird, Mezzo, Guastavino's and Le Pont de la Tour. His current restaurant ventures include the iconic Bibendum in Chelsea and The Boundary in Shoreditch.

In 1989 he founded the Design Museum in London, the world's first museum dedicated to design, which moved to larger premises in the former Commonwealth Building in Kensington, in 2016.

Terence continues to design furniture for Benchmark, Content by Terence Conran and The Conran Shop, and is the author more than 50 informative books that broadly reflect his design philosophy.

Terence was knighted for his services to design in 1983, and in 2018 he was made a Companion of Honour by Her Majesty The Queen, one of the highest distinctions available in the United Kingdom.
