The Waterside Inn Boutique

This is the story of a man who has followed his passionate interest throughout life and through it can view the world with sympathy and humour. Engaging, informative and amusing, his reminiscences build up a picture of a way of life that is far out of the way of most people, yet that touches us all in one important respect, the love of food. We learn of the dishes that have meant most to him, from his mother’s soups, or Mlle de Rothschild’s simple little egg dish, to a friend’s recipe for baked eggs with truffles . . . and because it is impossible to read about such wonderful things without wanting to try them he has included his recipes, many previously unpublished, throughout.
