A Must Read for All Foodies - Front Back of the House!By Gretchen VarkonyiMs. Pearlmans Smart Casual is a truly ambitious undertaking; and she rises to the challenge of taking us through "the transformation of gourmet restaurant style in America" with bushels of industry blurb presented in a deliciously palatable format for the reader. Like those cooks who puree spinach and bake it into the brownies; the book is chock full of really-good-for-you stuff like how and why gourmet restaurants with invisible chefs in invisible kitchens have evolved into celebrity status chefs with open and interactive kitchens; the carefully calculated design and lighting of those kitchens; and how social and cultural trends have spurred the popularity of cookbooks; recreational cooking classes; and vacation travel as destination eating. And thats a mere morsel: From Jose Andress minibar in DC to Alice Waters Chez Panisse in Berkeley; Ms. Pearlman table-hops us through a mouth-watering journey of meals; trendy and traditional; and provides the hip; informed dinner conversation as well - meticulously researched and ladled out with a fresh voice; a dry wit and an undeniably deep appreciation for food and its social and cultural currency. An edifying read!G. Varkonyi; Caterer ChefThe Dinner DameProvidence; RI
