I love Le Bernardin. I love it more when someone takes me there, because it's been out of reach of my wallet for most of my career. It's a delight to read the story behind the place, particularly that of the Le Coze siblings and how the restaurant came to be, people often forget that Le Bernardin wasn't created by Ripert, although it certainly achieved its lofty status under him. The recipes are easy to read, accompanied by great stories of how they came to be - this is a cookbook written by and for people with a passion for food and cooking. They probably could have edited out a few of the dozens of "This is my favorite recipe in the world" comments from Maguy Le Coze, but then again, maybe they all really are.
