Marc Grossman grew up in New York and now lives in Paris with his wife and children. What began, for the author, as "a minor homesick craving--say, for a fresh bialy from Kossar's or a piece of cheesecake from Junior's--grew into a "full-blown culinary obsession," which, happily, has resulted in a splendid collection of recipes and photographs that recreate the wildly varied experience of eating in New York. Grossman is the creator of two organic food establishments located in Paris--Bob's Juice Bar and Bob's Kitchen. He has also written books on smoothies, muffins, and bagels.
"It's cookbook season, and a couple stand out as must-haves for New York gourmands. "New York Cult Recipes' was written by former New Yorker Marc Grossman, who now lives in Paris with his family and missed the food he grew up with, like black and white cookies, matzo ball soup and cheesecake. The book, which is beautifully shot in locations like Katz's Deli and Murray's Sturgeon Shop, features instructions on how to make the dishes when you're far from the Big Apple." --New York Daily News " . . . the book feels very true to American culinary traditions and trends . . . Featuring a fresh design and doable recipes for many of America's favorite comfort foods, this cookbook will make a great gift for anyone who loves New York." --Library Journal
