Product Description
Owner and chef of Montreal's innovative Au Pied de Cochon restaurant, Martin Picard brings together 55 of the restaurant's recipes in this sumptuous album, which not only dodges culinary fads but also breaks the mold of the typical cookbook in its playful, award-winning design. There's no calorie counting here — Picard leads readers into shameless gastronomic indulgence with such hearty dishes as Foie Gras Pizza, Venison "Chinese Pie," and, per the restaurant's name, oven-braised Pigs' Feet. Six hundred color photos and 50 illustrations complement the lively text.

4 out of 5 stars Proof that Pigfoot Exists!   October 16, 2008
Dan Perlman
Brilliant - not that it's amazingly writtent, but it's engaging, and by the time I was done reading it, not only did I have a clear sense of both chef and restaurant, but I was ready to hop on a plane, fly to Montreal, and eat, eat, eat! The recipes are, while involved, reasonably clearly written for someone with good kitchen skills, though definitely beyond beginner level.


4 out of 5 stars Great Tribute   October 3, 2008
Michael Stashwick
I'm a big fan of this book. While many of the recipes are difficult to recreate, why would we want to go to a restaurant that had easy recipes? As 'restaurant books' go this is a wonderful tribute with great art work. It's a wonderful conversation piece to have in any foodie's collection. Great gift!

I have eaten at Pied de Cochon many times and have always enjoyed their food. The book is colorful and well written but it is more a story about the business than a cook book whose recipes you are likely to follow. The recipes are complex and contain ingreidents you are unlikely to purchase. If you are familiar with the restaurant or enjoy eating spare parts this is the book for you.
