French cooking is loved all over the world and yet is often relegated to expensive restaurants. We show how easily high-quality French cuisine can be made in the home kitchen. As the title suggests, these are classic French recipes, the ones you eat in brasseries and cafes, the ones you'd like to learn to make at home - chicken liver pate, pork rillettes, tapenade, asparagus Hollandaise, coquille Saint-Jacques, quiche Lorraine to name just a few. If you love French food, this little book will make you la vedette de la ville or the toast of the town.
