Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

There are many things to consider before the meal to be served from the kitchen through the butler's storage room to the restaurant. Attention must be paid to the preparation of the meal (not the cooking process, but as a comprehensive plan) and all the various details before those who wish to enjoy the meal actually sit down. The meal preparation and menu will be related to the meal itself later. For now, we will focus on its preparation. If you want to put on a formal dinner for a holiday or special occasion this book will tell you how to do it.

"Coben has had the distinct pleasure of working with some of the greatest chefs and the deification of chefs into rock stars. What has remained consistent is that the challenge of opening a restaurant has not become any easier. Whether the restaurant is a burger restaurant, a dive bar and taqueria, or a four-star grand Italian destination, the stakes are always high for each restaurateur or chef. They have investors, budgets, schedules and the desire to deliver their own vision of service and cuisine. Each design project is a journey to discover the soul of each project--to tell its story in an appropriate tone of voice that compliments each chef's vision."--Provided by publisher.
