Gumbo Shop : A New Orleans Restaurant Cookbook
By Richard Stewart

A cookbook featuring over fifty traditional and contemporary Creole recipes from the venerable French Quarter restaurant, authored by Gumbo Shop president and executive chef Richard Stewart. The foreword, by acclaimed New Orleans historian Peggy Scott Laborde paints a broad picture of the city's history, including how and why food plays such a big part. Bits of local lore accompany each recipe, and there are 25 beautiful color photographs, A glossary ans list of mail order food sources are included.

"One of my favorite, honest, downhome Creole restaurants in the French Quarteris the Gumbo Shop, and finally we have a collection of their scrumptious recipes, from alligator sauce piquante and macque choux to six different gumbos that show just how varied and delicious the cooking of Southern Louisiana can be. You'll bask in this cookbook, and the pages of photographs seem to have an aroma about them that makes you want to rip them out while you cook. -- John Mariani
