That's about a master chef exam, classical cooking like terrines and galantines and the like. The rest about the restaurants Lola and The French Laundry, good. Some recipes included. There's one from Lola for deep-fried squid that's been marinated in ginger ale that I want to try. I don't know how those restaurant people can work so hard and for so long, it's incredible to me.
