Summary
"Good cooking is where you find it," according to the authors of this
unique collection, whose international smorgasbord ranges from the haute
cuisine of Europe's finest restaurants to the juicy hot dogs at Dodger
Stadium. In perhaps the first celebrity cookbook, famed actor Vincent Price
and his wife, Mary, present mouthwatering recipes from around the world in
simplified, unpretentious forms that anyone can make and enjoy. Selected
from London's The Ivy, Madrid's Palace Hotel, New York's Sardi's, and other
legendary establishments, the recipes are accompanied by witty
commentaries, while color photos and atmospheric drawings by Fritz Kredel
make this one of the most beautiful books of its kind. Includes a
Retrospective Preface by the couple's daughter, Victoria Price, and a new
Foreword by Wolfgang Puck.

About the author
American actor Vincent Price (1911-93) was well known for his distinctive voice and serio-comic performances in horror films from the latter part of his career. He and his wife, costume designer Mary Grant Price (1917-2002), were avid art collectors and gourmets.
