A Catered Christmas (Mystery with Recipes No. 3) $4.39 As picturesque Longley New York gets ready to ring in the holiday season caterers Bernadette and Libby Simmons are coping with their busiest time of year. If that's not enough to make them run around like crazed elves they're recruited for a cooking show contest that pits celebrity chefs against each other–and gives rise to murder… Visions of sugar plums are most decidedly not dancing in Libby's head–especially since she and her sister are set to appear on the Hortense Calabash Cooking Show. The premise is to give six professional caterers random ingredients and have them whip up a holiday meal. The icing on the fruitcake is that Hortense Calabash is a grinch of year-round proportions. And the other contestants are some of the most demanding–and difficult–chefs in the business. Bernie and Libby are thrown into the mix as arguments and accusations simmer on the set. Holiday spirit has left the building–and leaves a body–when Hortense all dressed up as Santa Claus for the opening sequence is killed by an exploding oven. With the holiday rush in full swing and a killer still on the loose Bernie and Libby have no choice but to wrap up the mystery before their geese are well and fully cooked. . .

Is there such a thing as a GOOD Chinese buffet?

. . .Because I’ve never seen one. It all comes down to opinion, of course, but in my *opinion*, the quality of the food on Chinese buffets is generally worse than that at sit-down restaurants. It seems to me that Chinese-American food generally relies on quickly cooked stir-fry type meals, and having the food simmer there in hot plates defeats the purpose and ruins the flavor. The food gets all dried-out and icky, too. And plus, it seems like every Chinese buffet I go to has the EXACT.SAME.MENU as all the others; WHY?

The annoying thing about Chinese buffets is that people get so rude and push each other fighting over the last egg roll, chicken wing, etc, it just turns into a circus. I just avoid any type of buffet whatsoever because people behave like animals at them.

The French Menu Cookbook: The Food and Wine of France–Season by Delicious Season–in Beautifully Composed Menus for American Dining and Entertaining by an Amer $106.79 As those who knew him will attest, Francophile and food writer Richard Olney was one of a kind-a writerly cook who had a tremendous influence on American cooking via his well-worn cottage on a hillside in Provence. Born in the Midwest in 1927 and drawn to France at the tender age of twenty-four, Olney was unapologetically attracted to the style, flavors, and tastes of French cooking when most Americans were smitten by the wonders of the new prepared foods in their markets. With unrelenting passion and precision, Olney studied and explored the cuisine, carefully documenting all he had learned for future generations of chefs, cooks, and food lovers. His first of several landmark works, THE FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK, was well ahead of its time with its authentic French recipes and then-unheard-of seasonal approach to cooking. Little did we know then that THE FRENCH MENU COOKBOOK would provide inspiration for Alice Waters and her compatriots as they built the groundwork for a culinary revolution in America. Brimming with the honest and enlightening explanations of how the French really cook and the 150-plus authentic recipes, this book is a masterful resource that is a must for every serious cook. From the Hardcover edition.
