Recipes from a very small kitchen by a man with a very large talent
Nobody better embodies the present-day mantra “Eat real food in season” than David Tanis, one of the most original voices in American cooking. For more than a quarter-century, Tanis has been the chef at the groundbreaking Chez Panisse, in Berkeley, California, where the menu consists solely of a single perfect meal that changes each evening. Tanis’s recipes are down-to-earth yet sophisticated, simple to prepare but impressive on the plate.
Tanis opens this soulful, fun-to-read cookbook with his own private food ritu-als, those treats—jalapeño pancakes, beans on toast, pasta for one—for when you are on your own in the kitchen with no one else to satisfy. Then he follows with twenty incomparable menus (five per season) that serve four to six. Each transports the reader to places far and wide. And for grand occasions, a time for the whole tribe to gather around the table, Tanis delivers festive menus for holiday feasts. So in one book, three kinds of cooking: small, medium, and large.
Six months a year, DAvID TANIS is head chef at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California, where he’s been since the 1980s, helping to define the restaurant’s wildly influential style. He spends the other half of the year in Paris, where he hosts din-ners of international renown. David’s French kitchen is a six-by-ten-foot galley with a rickety stove, a small sink, little counter space, and a half-dozen well-used pots and pans. Tanis has been featured in The New York Times, Gourmet, and Saveur.

Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy Melt-in-Your-Mouth Cookies by Alice MedrichAlICe MeDRICH

“ Few people write better about baking”
—The New York Times
With recipes organized by texture! Flaky, gooey, crunchy, crispy, chewy, chunky, melt-in-your-mouth . . .
Cookies are easy, enticing, and fun. Yet as the award-winning baker Alice Medrich notes, too often, home cooks cling to the recipe on the bag of chocolate chips, when so much more is possible. “What if cookies reflected our modern culinary sensibility—our spirit of adventure and passion for flavors and even our dietary concerns?” Medrich writes in her introduction to this landmark cookie cookbook, organized by texture, from crunchy to airy to chunky. An inveterate tester and master manipulator of ingredients, she draws on the world’s pantry of ingredients for such delicious riffs on the classics as airy meringues studded with cashews and chocolate chunks, palmiers (elephant’s ears) made with cardamom and caramel, and rugelach with halvah. Butter and sugar content is slashed and the flavor turned up on everything from ginger snaps to chocolate clouds. From new spins on classic recipes including chocolate-chip cookies and brownies, to delectable 2-point treats for Weight Watchers, to cookies to make with kids, this master conjurer of sweets will bring bliss to every dessert table.
AlICe MeDRICH has won numerous cookbook-of-the-year awards and best in the dessert and baking category. She is the author of Pure Dessert, Bittersweet: Recipes and Tales from a Life in Chocolate, and Chocolate Holidays.

The most challenging, most invigorating holes a golfer can tackle
Playing on a links—which is golf the way it should be played—is every golfer’s dream. But among serious golfers, there is also controversy. What constitutes a true links course? How many of the world’s 30,000 golf courses are links? Which coun-try has the most? Is it possible to build one today? In this beautiful book, George Peper and Malcolm Campbell, two writers who know golf inside and out, answer these questions and provide a concise and entertaining tour of the world’s best links courses.
After profiling St. Andrews—the links that is the birthplace of the game—and 50 other classic links in the British Isles, the authors visit the courses in other parts of the world. They also examine how links design has become hot again, thanks to a revival of British-style course architecture and the fact that they’re more eco-friendly than traditional courses. Throughout, esteemed golf photographer Iain Lowe’s gorgeous images show the world’s best 246 links in all their glory.
GeORGe PePeR , who was editor-in-chief of Golf Magazine for 25 years, has written, co-written, or edited 17 books, including Artisan’s 500 World’s Greatest Golf Holes and Greg Norman’s Shark Attack. George divides his time between Portsmouth, Rhode Island, and St. Andrews, Scotland.
MAlCOlM CAMPbell , a member of the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, is the author of Encyclopedia of Golf and Ultimate Golf Techniques. He has contributed to many other periodicals, including Golf Magazine, Links Golf, and T&L Golf. A 6-handicap, Malcolm lives in Lower Largo, Fife, Scotland.

The joy and passion of playing the crème de la crème of golf
What Makes a True Links Course?
The Right TerrainBuilt on linksland with a light environmental
footprint. Close to the sea, usually with sea views. Fairways run hard and fast. Greens favor a run-on
approach. Open site (not many trees).
The Right TurfInfertile, sand-based soil. The right grasses—bents
and fescues that are indigenous to linksland as well as marrams that stabilize the dunes.
The right kind of drainage.
The Right WeatherExposed to the elements. Ever-
fluctuating maritime winds mean that course conditions change frequently.
“ Calculating the wind, allowing for the
firm terrain, trusting your judgment
and feel—that’s the joy of playing a
links. You need almost a sixth sense,
an ability to adjust to all the conditions
and somehow get your ball to travel the
proper distance—whether through the
air or along the ground. That’s the
essence of links golf. . . . I love it!”

Styling girls’ hair is easy with advice from the owner of Cozy’s Cuts for Kids
Little girls love to have pretty hair, and parents and grandparents can spend hours trying to achieve the best styles for their daughters. This book gives an insider’s look at how to make the task trouble-free and fun for both girls and their caretakers.
An expert on hair care—with a chain of children’s hair salons and a nationwide line of hair products for kids—Cozy Friedman shares her years of training to give each girl the best look to fit her style and personality. Starting with a hair identifica-tion guide, the book recommends the products, methods, and tools for each hair type from curly to straight. Expert advice includes step-by-step instructions for how to cut hair at home and how to fix bad-hair days. Best of all, there are wonderful styles (with clear directions on how to achieve them) for girls’ everyday hair, dress-up dos, and fantasy looks, and even suggested styles for babies, too.
Chock-full of color photographs, the look-book aspect of Cozy’s Complete Guide to Girls’ Hair will appeal to both girls and their parents. Grown-ups can browse through photographs of more than thirty different hairstyles and choose one that works best for their little girl!
Inspired by a friend’s tale of a little nephew’s tearful visit to a grown-up hair salon, COzY FRIeDMAN had the idea of creating a salon where kids are the priority, not a nuisance. After earning her barber’s license, she opened the doors to her first salon on Madison Avenue in New York City, Cozy’s Cuts for Kids. Fifteen years later, Cozy—now a mother of two—provides stress-free cuts and styles for New York kids, including the children of many celebrities, in her three salons. Her hair prod-uct line, So Cozy Hair Care for Children, is distributed nationwide.

Two award-winning books in one box offer a lifetime of learning for anyone who loves fine food
From two acclaimed restaurants came two of the most acclaimed, award-winning cookbooks ever published—now packaged together in a luxurious slipcased boxed set, the ideal holiday gift for any food lover.
First there was French Laundry in Napa Valley, setting a new standard for Ameri-can fine dining. Then there was The French Laundry Cookbook, setting a new standard for American cookbooks. In 2006, Chef Keller opened Ad Hoc, his casual family-style restaurant that serves a single menu a day, and that restaurant, too, gave birth to a groundbreaking cookbook, in fact a New York Times best seller.
Whereas Ad Hoc at Home offers a huge happiness-inducing collection of family-style recipes that includes lunch-counter favorites—lemon meringue and cherry pie; such classics as Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Herbed Rack of Lamb, plus Thomas’s mom’s coconut cake and his dad’s favorite meatballs—The French Laundry Cookbook is a culinary ode to finesse. Every recipe in it has become a classic: from Keller’s Salmon Cornets to his Oysters and Pearls and Butter-Poached Lobster. From the casual but carefully considered food of Ad Hoc at Home to The French Laundry Cookbook’s recipes at their most refined, this is cooking that delivers in taste, and makes us all better cooks.
THOMAS KelleR ’s The French Laundry and Per Se continue to vie for best restau-rant in America and both have received the coveted three stars from the Michelin Guide. Ad Hoc, the casual eatery opened in 2006 in Yountville, is the new star in the firmament of Keller restaurants.
