A Recipe for
Cappuccino Flats
"Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy." |
| Ginette Olivesi-Lorenzias |
A three-year-old gave this reaction to her Christmas dinner: "I don't like the turkey, but I like the bread he ate." |
