Hachette The Cook’s Atelier

Mother and daughter American expats Marjorie Taylor and Kendall Smith Franchini always dreamed of living in France. With a lot of hard work and sprinkling of fate, they realized this dream and founded The Cook’s Atelier, a French cooking school in the heart of Burgundy. Combining their professional backrounds in food and wince, they created a convivial international culinary destination. Their debut cookbook chronicles their life in a charming French village and their relationship with the region’s artisan food producers and winemakers. Featuring more than 100 market-inspired recipes, the book- like their school- teaches classic French techniques in a beautiful, approachable way. The Cook’s Atelier is a richly illustrated presentation of a family’s delicious world, and a practical primer for adopting elements of the French lifestyle at home, no matter where you live.
